2. In the same governorate
It applies if the employee works in one of the localities belonging to the same governorate.

3. In other governorate
It applies if the employee works in one of the localities belonging to a different governorate.

4. In Israel
It applies if the employee works in the Palestinian Territory occupied by Israel in 1948.

5. In Settlements
It applies if the employee works in one of the Israeli settlements established in parts of the Palestinian Territory occupied in 1967.

6. Abroad
It applies if the employee works in another country outside the Palestinian Territory.
