Employees in the public sector, that are able to benefit from discounted meals. the new ceiling for employer participation, effective from Jan 1, 2014, is 569 shekels per month.
This memorandum doesn’t enable employers, who previously did not participate in the cost, to now do so. The above regards places of employment that offer discounted meals or via meal tickets (which are regarded as employer participation).
this has no bearing on the private sector.
