From Histadrut threatens strike if disabled protesters ignored
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Histadrut labor union is threatening a general strike if the government fails to address the demands made by disabled Israelis in recent months.
“If there is no solution then we have no choice but to declare a general strike,” says Histadrut chairman Avi Nissenkorn.
Disabled protesters have been staging ongoing protests, blocking highways, demanding an increase to their monthly stipend from NIS 2,342 ($660) to minimum wage, or NIS 5,000 ($1,400).
