In Israeli labor law, if an employee repeatedly gets the same bonus regardless of any concrete criteria, then that bonus is considered as part of that employee's salary as though it had been part of the contract. This is due to many employers calling a part of the salary a "bonus" so as to avoid it counting towards retirement benefits and other allowances; and for the flexibility of being able to cut salaries without ostensibly having done so.
