Following the publication last night in Vala Real Estate about the phenomenon of the delusional requirements that appear in the job ads for the position of Senior Planning and Construction Inspector in several municipalities and councils across the country - the Association of Construction and Infrastructure Engineers today (Thursday) submitted a request for a restraining order against the publication of the necessary ads due to fear for human life : "This is a real violation of public safety, it is a matter of mind control"
The article, first published in Vala Real Estate, caused great astonishment among the various professionals in the construction industry, who could not remain indifferent in the face of the delusional requirements for the position of senior construction inspector, the criticisms
of the published ads mainly concern the bone The fact that the position is intended for qualified professionals in the fields of construction, engineering and architecture, and not for people without a relevant education, as required in the vacancy notice in various municipalities and councils in the country.
Another criticism voiced is that the very possibility of being appointed to positions in the public service or local government on the basis of a rabbinic education first harms the employment opportunities of women, as it is known that their rabbinical certification is not recognized in Israel, and this alternative is blocked to them.

The Association of Independent Engineers and Architects in Israel
, which works permanently to ensure proper and high-quality planning in the country, stated that it "views very seriously the educational requirements that have been established as part of this tender. The organization believes that in order to fulfill this essential and significant role, which requires special knowledge and expertise, the bidders must be engineers and/or architects, with experience - registered or licensed, as required by law. Only the above-mentioned professionals can ensure the principles of public safety, prevention of unnecessary risks to safety (human life), avoidance of planning failures and thereby safeguarding, among other things, financial public".
Furthermore, the organization, which represents more than 50,000 professional workers, warns, "that errors in planning and construction (even more so, in their supervision) may result in direct and indirect damages on a huge scale. Hence, the organization calls on the decision makers and the relevant officials in the Ministry of the Interior (local government administration) Immediately change the educational requirements for the purpose of fulfilling this position."

Israel David, acting chairman of the Association of Construction and Infrastructure Engineers, former chairman of the Standards Institute,
joined this position of the organization
: "A construction inspector is the most important function in construction, he has to understand everything from everything. After that, one wonders why when an earthquake comes, thousands of buildings They will collapse. The one to blame is the Ministry of the Interior, which for 16 years has not implemented the government's decision for the statutory status of a construction inspector. This tender for a construction inspector shows how poor the public service is. They took a directive for a general-administrative position without even reading what it says, and put it in a tender for an inspector Son, in order to solve the problem of professionalism, they wrote that the candidate would do a year and a half course in the field, a joke."
Roni Brill, environmental consultant and director of the Women's Forum in the Environment
, adds to the harsh words of her colleagues, and asserts, as mentioned, that "beyond the professional questions and the possible consequences of appointing a person who does not have an education in the required field, the possibility of being appointed to positions in the public service or local government on the basis of a rabbinic education first of all harms the employment opportunities of women, as we know their certification as rabbis is not recognized in Israel, and this alternative is blocked to them."
