Many Anglos I have met over the years have trouble understanding the Israeli Tax laws for non-self employed citizens.
In addition to dealing with understanding Hebrew, they need to deal with understanding what the deductions on their Payslip are and how they were calculated.
many employers do not have a Payroll Comptroller who is patient enough and who is also capable of explaining this and willing to take the time for it.
I have over 20 years experience in the field and have a very service-oriented attitude. I regard the employees as my clients, who are entitled to understand what has been done on thier Payslip.
I was contracted in 2005 to set up a Payroll Dept. for a Hi-tec company that employed 650 employees. up until I arrived the Payroll was done by an outside CPA at his office on an outdated, unreliable program that didn’t even begin to comply with the company’s needs.
I successfully set up a new in-house payroll program and implemented full integration with their attendance and bookkeeping programs as well as transferring all existing data into the new program.
procedures and documents were created for all payroll and HR issues.
I initiated a full translation of the New Payslip along with a photo example on the company’s intranet site, as well as 1/2 hour seminars explaining the make-up of the Payslip, terminoligy and explantion of tax laws.
the company now has all the tools in place for employees to receivethe data they need.
