Bus drivers threaten strike over wages
Drivers of Egged Ta’avura, a susbidiary of Egged, Israel’s largest public transportation company, threaten to halt service, Israel Radio reports.
They demand to have their hourly wage raised from NIS 32 to NIS 39 (c. $10), as the Transportation Ministry decided recently.
Egged Ta’avura operates lines mainly connecting periphery communities to main Egged municipal and intercity lines. The company runs all lines in Netanya and in many communities in the western Negev, as well as in communities around Jerusalem.
