Recruiting your first employee comes with a lot of administrative steps:

• taking out insurance against accidents at work and a Dimona declaration before the start of employment

• drawing up an employment contract

• registering at the Social Security Authority (RSZ) and the Direct Tax Department

• joining a child allowance fund

• joining an annual leave fund if the enterprise employs labourers

• joining an External Service for Prevention and Protection at Work

• drawing up employment conditions

• arranging an appropriate welcome for the employee

• determining a joint committee to which the employee will belong and which will establish the sectoral agreements applying to the employer and employee
