29.1 Gross income from salary

Gross income from salary includes all the payments the worker received from his work as an employee for the month of September.

Gross income includes the basic payments and all the extra payments, like: payments for extra hours, premium, 13th month salary, payment for recreation time, clothing, board and lodging, payments for car maintenance etc.

Gross income is the income before deductions of revenue taxes, National Security [Social Security], health insurance, payments to insurance funds, pension and compensation funds, to return a loan or any other deduction from the salary.

The gross income is important since it is uniform [in its components] and is not influenced by random deduction in one month or another, or from deductions related to the personal status of the worker (like: place of residence [along the borders and in developing towns the taxes are lower], number of children, loans, savings etc.).

29.2 Net income from salary

Only if there is no way to get the gross income, write the net income.

Net income is the sum remains after the deduction of income tax and social security from the gross income, and before the deduction of all other payments.

29.3 Additional explanations to question 34

A. A person who did not work as an employee in September has to answer question 34 too. He has to mark an x in the box on the left, and to go to question 36.

[p. 70]

B. In order to avoid errors, the employees are asked to copy the gross income from their paycheck.

C. Those who were absent from work on September, because of illness, vacation, reserve duty, accident etc, are to include in the gross income the payments received for the time of absence, from the employer or from other sources.

D. A person who worked as an employee in several workplaces in September has to sum up all the gross income received from all workplaces.

E. If on September, a person had an income from work as an employee and as a self-employed, he will write his income as an employee in this question (question 34) and his income as a self-employed in question 36.

F. Cooperative members will include in this question their income from work as employees and also their income from the cooperative revenues.

G. If the employee does not get a paycheck, and gets his salary in cash, he has to write it as a net income.

H. If on October, the person has not received his salary for the month of September, he has to write the salary paid for August.

29.4 How to write [the answer]

Write the income from right to left, in whole Israeli Shekels (without the Agorot).
Examples: 1. Income of 3,200.35 IS, Write: [Illustration]

[p. 71]

30. Question 35

35. For how many work days were you paid in the month of September 1995?

[] 1 For the whole month
[] 2 For part of the month


for _ _ days.


30.1 For the whole month

A person who received a full salary will mark the "for the whole month" answer, even if he was absent from work because of a holiday, reserve duty, sickness or any other reason.

A person who is usually employed part time, who received the full usual salary, will mark this answer too.

30.2 For part of the month

A person, whose salary for September was not a full salary, will mark an X in the box and will write the number of days he was paid for.

30.3 More than one workplace

A person, who received an income on a monthly basis and worked in more than one workplace, will refer to the main workplace, for example:

A person, who received a salary for the whole month from his main workplace, and also received a salary for part of the month from additional workplace, will mark an X in answer number 1: "For the whole month".

30.4 Daily pay

A person, who received an income on a daily basis and worked in more than one workplace (or changed his workplace in September), will sum-up the number of days he was paid for.

If he received a salary for the whole month, he will mark an X in answer 1.

If he received a salary for part of the month, he will mark an X in answer 2 and will write the number of days he was paid for.
