There's a different way to look at this; according to these numbers, the
system administration service is worth 17,020 to 35,520 NIS/month to the
employer (taking your 185 hour work month).  So when there is a direct
employee on the receiving end --- not a contractor --- they can expect
to receive anywhere between 13,500 and 28,000 NIS, gross, per month.
(This is an approximation done by taking 25% employer overhead, instead
of just the 20.33% of social benefits.)

But it would seem that anyone here who is doing system administration
work for a contractor and is out of their "useless" stage should do some
thinking and see if they can find an organization that is regularly in
need of 185 hours/month of system administration.
