The women’s employment law was updated on July 3, 2017 (correction 58). Accordingly, an employee will be eligible to be absent from work for one hour per day during the period of time when their spouse is in active reserve duty (miluim) in the I.D.F. under the following circumstances:

1. The period of the spouse’s active reserve duty is no less than five consecutive days.

2. The employee has at least one child under age 13.

3. The employee is employed in a full-time position as accepted in place of employment.

4. The employee notified the employer of the intent to utilize this right and presents the employer with a copy of the spouse’s proof of actual active reserve duty.

The above applies to men and women.
Payment for above hours are not to be deducted from salary.
This does not apply to employees who are eligible for paid parent (breast feeding) hours or pregnancy hours.
