NETO lets you hire Israeli employees easily and compliantly, handling contracts, payroll, and all statutory contributions in one invoice. Hiring in Israel on your own is hard because of the contracts, payroll, and rights involved. As a licensed manpower contractor (1565), NETO combines hiring and employing in a single system. So you can bring on the right person in Tel Aviv without building the back office yourself.
Hiring in Israel, without the hard part
Bringing on an Israeli employee normally means a local company, a tax file, payroll software, pension funds and a deep read of Israeli labor law. NETO removes all of it. You pick the person; NETO becomes the official employer under manpower license 1565, issues the contract and payslip, and handles every statutory obligation. No entity, no bureaucracy · just a compliant employee who can start in days.
- NETO is the legal employer · contract, payroll, national insurance and pension.
- One monthly invoice covers salary, employer costs and the management fee.
- Hire full-time, part-time, temporary or project-based · and convert contractors too.
Why hiring in Israel is hard on your own
Israeli labor law is detailed and strictly enforced. Getting it wrong is expensive · so most employers spend weeks just to legally bring one person on board.
Doing it yourself
Opening a local entity, a tax file and payroll systems takes months and real money. You also need pension funds, statutory reporting and ongoing labor-law expertise · before a single salary goes out.
Paying as a contractor
Treating an Israeli worker as a "freelancer" feels simple but is risky. If they work mainly for you, on your tools and instructions, they may be reclassified as an employee · with retroactive severance, vacation and pension owed.
Skipping contributions
Israeli law mandates pension and national-insurance contributions from the first month. Missing them exposes you to penalties and personal liability you did not see coming.
Ending it wrong
Letting someone go without the mandatory hearing ("Shimua"), notice period and documented severance can turn a routine exit into a costly dispute.

You found the perfect person in Tel Aviv
A company outside Israel · or an Israeli employer with no payroll setup · finds a great candidate but does not want to build an employment operation just to hire one person. Two ways to handle it:
The hard way
Open an entity or run them as a contractor. Slow, costly, and exposed to reclassification, missed contributions and a messy exit if it does not work out.
The easy way · via NETO
Send NETO the candidate and the terms. NETO signs them as a salaried employee with full rights, runs payroll and compliance, and sends you one monthly invoice. The person can start in days · and you simply manage the work.
Doing it yourself vs hiring via NETO
For one hire or a small team, NETO reaches the same compliant result in a fraction of the time and effort.
| What it takes | Hire via NETO | Open your own entity | Pay as a contractor |
|---|---|---|---|
| Time to first hire | A few days | Months | Fast |
| Local entity / tax file | Not needed | Required | Not needed |
| Contract & payslip | On you | None | |
| Statutory contributions | On you | Missing | |
| Compliance risk | On NETO | On you | High |
| One simple invoice | Many costs | ||
| License & supervision | License 1565 |

The law requires 6% · at NETO it is 8.33%
The mandatory pension extension order obliges every employer to contribute 6% of salary to the severance component, and section 14 of the Severance Pay Law applies to that money automatically. NETO contributes the full severance component by default · 8.33% · so the ongoing contribution replaces severance pay in full and no top-up is due when the employment ends. An employer contributing less than 8.33% must top up severance at the end of the employment relationship.
A worker who declares they have no active pension fund, in a one-off engagement · there the contribution obligation begins only after six months of work. A worker with an active pension arrangement is entitled from day one, with contributions made retroactively after three months or at the end of the tax year, whichever is earlier.
