Question 3

What is a final settlement (Gmar Heshbon)?

Accepted Answer

A final settlement, known in Hebrew as 'Gmar Heshbon', is a comprehensive financial calculation performed at the end of an employment relationship. It includes severance pay, unused vacation days, convalescence pay, advance notice compensation, holiday pay, and other entitlements under Israeli labor law.

Question 4

How quickly can I get my settlement calculated?

Accepted Answer

Once you provide your employment details, we prepare a full settlement calculation within 24 hours. By Israeli law, the employer must pay the settlement within 15 days of the employment end date. Delays beyond that may entitle you to additional compensation.

Question 5

What is Remitly and how does it help caregivers in Israel?

Accepted Answer

Remitly (previously Rewire) is a financial platform designed for migrant workers. It provides a prepaid card linked to a Bank of Jerusalem account in your name, allowing you to receive your salary, make purchases, withdraw cash from ATMs, and send money home — all from one place with zero sending fees.

Question 6

How do I open a Remitly account?

Accepted Answer

A dedicated Remitly representative will come directly to your employer's home to help you open your account online. The process is simple, quick, and done with personal assistance so you don't have to figure it out alone.
