Tachles Israel is an independent information service, not a government authority. Check binding conditions, eligibility and deadlines with the official source.
Before you start
Agree return date and hours in writing; proposed dismissal or income reduction requires checking the exact protected period first.
Who is this guide for?
Employees returning from birth-related leave or absence.
Parenting leave, unpaid leave and medical absence differ. The permit service is for employers, not an employee's substitute application.
The checklist
Build a dated timeline
Leave approvals; required medical evidence.
Protection cannot be calculated from birth date alone.
Confirm return terms
Contract; messages; previous payslip.
Do not sign changes you do not understand.
Check proposed adverse changes
Employer notice; timeline.
This does not make every change lawful after sixty days.
Document and enquire
Payslips; birth/leave approvals; notices.
A permit application is not an issued permit.
Check the first payslip
Return payslip; employer response.
An enforcement complaint does not replace a claim or individual advice.
