Jerusalem Municipality wants guards in school to work longer days

The Jerusalem Municipality threatens to strike across schools in the capital unless security guards working in educational facilities around the city work longer hours.

According to officials, the municipality wants the government to keep security guards in schools later in the day, due to the recent deterioration in the security situation.

The municipality’s announcement comes after the Jerusalem Parent Teacher Association said it may decide not to send kids to school unless security in the city’s schools is beefed up.
