High school teachers strike over salaries again tomorrow
The teachers union announces a one-day strike for high schools in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv and Beersheba tomorrow.
The strike, the third in the last two weeks, is being called by teachers demanding higher salaries who claim the government is procrastinating over talks.
The teachers’ union representing high school staff wants an immediate monthly gross wage increase for starting teachers, from NIS 6,400 ($1,820) to NIS 8,000 ($2,275), along with a comparable raise for teachers with up to seven years experience.
The teachers claim the Finance Ministry is “refusing to reach an agreement in good faith.”
