The decision of the Ministry of Finance to cut unemployment benefits came in accordance with the established mechanism, but for business owners and the unemployed, who have not yet had time to recover from the corona crisis, the bureaucracy does not solve the economic difficulties.

According to them, after the opening of the economy, they built plans based on the continuation of the Knesset, and fear that the change will take them back.



"They said they would give us Khalat until June. "Though it is only a 10% and it is not such a large amount, but still in principle.



" To the frustration expressed by many unemployed partners, but the law stipulates that unemployment benefits will be cut a month after the unemployment rate fell by less than 10%, and the Ministry of Finance followed suit.

Chen Bar-Oz, owner of the "Bar-oz group" tourism business, described the concern for the future to come. "The whole issue of the Knesset has affected everyone, but there has been no tourism at all - and the populist statements that will now develop tourism are not visible on the ground and only a slogan remains. "If there is no tourism and no Knesset, then people will go, there will be no one to employ and no workers."



According to Bar-Oz, "Uncertainty has been created, and uncertainty is the recipe for the collapse of businesses in the country. I currently have employees who were in the IDF, but I also reduced it. I started working more with suppliers, service providers, hiring employees. To me it's less good. I work for foreign tourism and it does not exist at the moment, so I will have to pay my employees when I have no income, or fire them. "



Dotan Sofer, former chairman of our own party and one of the leaders of the Independent Protest, asked for another solution. "Instead of cutting ten percent - abolish the Knesset.

"What happens with the Knesset is that a lot of people work in the black. This creates a situation in which the state loses both the Knesset and the taxes it does not levy as a result."

Straight according to the mechanism.

The move came following the publication of data from the Central Bureau of Statistics, according to which in March the unemployment rate fell to 9.5%, which is about 385,000 unemployed, compared with 14% in February.

Following the widespread opening of the economy, 182,000 unemployed returned to work last month.



The decrease in the unemployment rate will lead to a cut in the monthly amount received by those in the Knesset by 10% starting on May 21. This is in accordance with the automatic mechanism approved at the beginning of the Corona crisis, which stipulates that unemployment benefits will be reduced to 90% when the monthly unemployment rate reaches 10 % And will cease completely when the unemployment rate reaches 7.5%, or at the end of June 2021, whichever is earlier, the change will take place one month after the publication of the figure.
