The contacts between the Histadrut, the Ministry of Finance and the employers' organizations prior to the formulation of a package deal in the economy have reached the last line and it seems that the deal will be signed tomorrow.

The latest "package deal" between the Histadrut, the manufacturers and the government was signed in 1984 in the days of the then Minister of Finance, Modai.

Since Finance Minister Lieberman took office, from the first days of his tenure, he seems determined to advance the move and has even devoted quite a few discussions to the issue, until this week saw a significant breakthrough.

Despite the optimism, there are those who warn and mention that the finished can not yet be congratulated.

Details of the resulting transaction:

-The gradual increase of the minimum wage by 5 steps between the years 2022-2025 to a level of NIS 6,000, instead of NIS 5,300. The first beat is on April 22, it will be about NIS 100, a year later the minimum wage will increase by another NIS 100, in 2024 it will increase by another NIS 200, in 2025 by another NIS 100, and in the last year of the agreement, 2026, it will be paid to NIS 6,000 with an additional NIS 100.

It should be noted that this section seems a bit problematic in light of the fear of inflation, as it deals with absolute numbers that may erode the degree of inflationary spin of more than the percentages currently expected by valuation factors.

- Wages in the public sector will be frozen until the end of 2022. -Public sector workers will be

able to work one day a week from home (only workers whose profession is suitable).

One of the issues that is not yet closed and constitutes a rock of divisions between the parties is "flexible hours" for the purpose of calculating employee wages - employers demand to be given the option to offset up to 15 hours per month.

For example, in the event that an employee performed 6 hours on a particular day instead of 8 full-time and 10 hours the next day - the employer will not pay him for two additional hours on the second day, but will offset them at the expense of the first day.

As representing the business sector is important for me to make sure that any deal will be signed will lead to growth and raising productivity in the business sector. "

said in response to reports tonight on a package deal:" While some people shouting there before The goal, but the details of the package deal are not yet closed and for us, there are no further agreements on the deal.

In order to be able to close a real and good package deal for the economy, it is necessary to agree on the flexible hours for details, to fight the phenomenon of fictitious sick days and more.

We will continue to work for the benefit of a package deal that will give a real message, as we have done in recent months, with only the good of the Israeli economy in mind. "
