Compliance Mastery.
Delivered by Humans.
Israel's most trusted partner for global companies hiring, paying, and retaining local talent — with zero setup friction and total legal certainty.




















Israel's leading Employer of Record
CWS Israel is the preferred in-country partner for the world's most respected global brands, MSPs, PEOs, and EoR firms. We handle every aspect of employment in Israel — from compliant contracts and payroll to benefits administration and local HR support.
Founded in 2014, we've grown from a boutique advisory firm into Israel's most trusted EoR provider, relied upon by companies across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific to expand their teams in Israel without the complexity of a local entity.
We don't just process payroll. We build lasting relationships, advocate for employees, and ensure every party — client, employee, and regulator — wins.
No entity required
Hire employees in Israel in days, not months. We are the legal employer — you retain full operational control.
Full legal compliance
Israeli labor law is complex. Our team ensures every employment relationship is fully compliant, from day one.
People first, always
We advocate equally for employees and clients. Win-win-win isn't a slogan — it's how every engagement is structured.

People first. Always.

How we show up
These aren't words on a wall. They're the standards we hold every team member, engagement, and decision to.
Radical Transparency
No hidden fees, no vague answers. Every cost, every process, every decision is fully visible to our clients and employees.
Win-Win-Win
Every engagement must work for the client, the employee, and CWS. We walk away from deals that don't serve all three.
Walk the Walk
We only recommend what we practice. Our own team is employed under the same standards we apply to every client.
People First, Always
Every decision starts with one question: how does this affect the people involved? Policies serve people, not the other way around.
Raise the Bar
The industry standard isn't our ceiling — it's our floor. We constantly push for higher compliance, better processes, and stronger outcomes.
