Employers declare "war of attrition"

"This position of the Ministry of Finance is not acceptable. I intend to fight it to the end - a war of attrition," he said in a conversation with Walla!

Dubi Amitai, chairman of the business sector presidency,

after concluding the meeting with the Ministry of Finance. "It is simply damage at both the educational and economic levels. "

The original goal of the Khalat program was to provide a solution for the corona unemployed who are unable to find work due to the limitations on the economy." However, the economy has long since opened up, with the exception of the tourism industry, but workers are in no hurry to return to work and prefer to receive unemployment benefits. About half of the unemployed are young people aged 18-34.

According to CBS data, the number of vacancies in the economy has reached a peak since the beginning of the survey of more than 130,000. According to Amitai, who represents 600,000 businesses that employ the economy, this is a much higher number. "The business sector is missing 170,000 workers. Just come work. "

According to him, the shortage is especially noticeable in the areas of hotels, restaurants, retail chains, customer service of large companies and more. "In agriculture alone, there are currently 20,000 workers missing. Hot updated me today that they lack a lot of customer service people. People know that one day the application will end and they will have to return to work, and they say let us enjoy or pay in black."

Amitai suggests correcting the application model The current one will provide a point-by-point solution for industries whose level of recovery from the corona crisis is still low, such as the tourism industry.

Shahar Turgeman, Chairman of the Association of Fashion Chains Trade and Catering and Chairman of the Brill Group

, Who was also present last night at a meeting with the Ministry of Finance, adds: "We have expressed strong opposition to the outline presented to us, especially to one issue that young single men or women in general will continue to receive Knesset fees.

We think that owners of families with children and older people should have social security, but young, healthy and energetic there is no reason in the world to appreciate the Knesset, on the contrary it should be shortened, not one more day. We also said at the meeting that the state continues to encourage the black economy. "Young people who are willing to go back condition it on payment in black, we do not want to do that."

"Billions on Election Economy"

The

president of the Manufacturers' Association and the chairman of the presidency of employers and businesses, Dr. Ron Tomer

, also this morning attacked the Ministry of Finance's decision to continue with the Khalal outline, saying that "" the Ministry of Finance spends our children's money to finance the unemployed. "Tnikim will re-create demand for jobs and save billions for the economy."

* The association's president also stressed that the main reason behind the continued implementation is the election, and the election economy that accompanies it *. "The continuation of the Knesset indicates shocking economic management and the only way to explain this conduct is that it is an election economy. After all, when there are 130,000 vacancies in the economy, it makes no sense to continue the Knesset model.

The leave costs the state more than a billion shekels a month, or insist spend this huge amount because of election economics, sure you can do with this money better things, such as increasing old-age pensions, add classrooms in schools, increase the health basket and more.

Every A case should put an end to the payment of sick leave, because as long as employers all over the country are begging for workers and those workers are of choice in sick leave, the economy has no real ability to return to routine. Therefore, I call on the Treasury to stop continued sick leave payments. And then gradually to the other employees, "said Tomer.
