ORT high school teachers to strike on Monday

High school teachers in the ORT system will strike tomorrow as the teachers union continues its dispute with the treasury over better wages, the union says.

The strike is announced as teachers demand higher salaries and claim the government is procrastinating over talks.

The union has called a number of strikes in recent weeks as negotiations with the Finance Ministry over a monthly gross wage increase from NIS 6,400 ($1,820) to NIS 8,000 ($2,275) have stalled.
