Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The bill amends the Annual Leave Law so that days of volunteering in the security forces, the police or rescue bodies during an emergency period (declaration of a special situation on the home front, a reserve call-up order or declaration of a civil emergency event) will not be included in calculating the vacation days the employee is required to take. In addition, the National Insurance Institute will transfer compensation to the employer for the days the employee was absent in order to volunteer, and the state will contribute to the implementation costs of this arrangement.
