Which zones you may work in
Updated 9 Aug 2026
The zone you are permitted to work in is stated on your work visa:
Zone 1 — you may work anywhere in the country.
Zone 2 — you may work in the centre and the periphery, but not in the Tel Aviv area.
Zone 3 — you may work in the periphery only.
Every job on this platform shows its zone number beside the town, so you can compare it with your visa before applying.
In some cases the zone restriction may be lifted — for example when the work ended because the patient died or moved permanently into a care institution. Check this with a licensed agency before applying.
