Employment Service CEO Rami Graur sharply attacks Social Security CEO Meir Spiegler: "Take leadership and take responsibility for overpayment of permit payments."
Grauer recently attacked Spiegler, saying that the NIS 1 billion in overpayments made by the Mossad to hundreds of thousands of citizens who were not entitled to unemployment benefits stemmed from inaccurate reports from the employment service.
The National Insurance Institute, on the other hand, claims that thanks to their activities, "we prevented overpayments of an additional NIS 5 billion."
According to Social Security, CEO Spiegler “personally referred dozens of unemployed people who complained about the inability of the employment service and indeed his inquiries were also answered unanswered.
"In the Corona crisis, it has been proven that a committee with a committee has lost its power over the employment service, and its CEO will do well to keep his eyes open and act to justify the continuation of the service's activities."
The National Insurance Institute slaps the employment service for refusing any of their inspections, so regarding the establishment of a system or series of treatment in one place for the unemployed in Israel.
"Had the Employment Service not been engaged in ego wars and would have seen the good of the citizen before their eyes - the unemployed would have received fast, reliable service without bureaucracy and harassment" National.
Will allow the spread of the refund
The National Insurance Institute states that they will allow the spread of payments in the return of permit payments, which stand at about NIS 920 million - NIS 2,400 on average per person.
The Employment Service responds by claiming that the National Insurance Director General's statements are "far from the truth", since the employment test operated by the Employment Service is not sufficient to determine entitlement to unemployment benefits. "The Employment Service reports everyone who is registered with him, whether or not he is entitled In all the months of the corona, "the employment service clarifies." The claim that the National Insurance Institute automatically pays unemployment benefits only based on employment service reports is a blatant lie, unless it chooses to do so and knowingly puts itself into overpayments, as it did. "
The Employment Service adds that "not only was the Social Security aware of the possibility of permit payments in advance, but it was also prepared for it and updated the public accordingly."
Employment Service CEO Rami Graur said: “Given the default and its dimensions, I expect Meir Spiegler to show leadership and take responsibility for the overpayments he has made.
He failed the test of the act and paid a billion shekels illegally.
It is not too late to correct the mistake, with the required sensitivity the public will understand this, especially since Spiegler announced it in advance.
The attempt to roll over the responsibility for the employment service is shameful and sinful to the truth, it does not respect Spiegler and it does not deserve the public sector.
The Employment Service opposed all the way to the automatic unemployment benefit policy until June 2021 out of an understanding of its damages to job seekers and the economy alike - a policy pushed by Spiegler and others, and instead proposed at the beginning of the crisis the German model.
We work tirelessly to return jobseekers to the labor force, as we have done throughout the crisis and so we will continue to do - this is our responsibility and not otherwise. "The National Insurance Institute and CEO Meir Spiegler said:" It is a pity that Grauer "We have chosen to divert his failures towards the National Insurance Institute. We request that the bill of September 29 be returned to the Knesset plenum and finally approved for the benefit of the public. In reference to Mr. Grauer's words - the one who rejects Momo is rejected."
