The daycare's struggle for supervision is escalating, when this morning (Tuesday) Finance Minister Avigdor Lieberman and Economy Minister Orna Barbibai wrote an urgent letter in which they threatened not to renew the school year after the Sukkot holiday.

Their main demand is to formulate an outline that will improve the terms of employment of the workers as well as an increase in budget and manpower.

Thus, parents of about 120,000 toddlers up to 3 years of age may be left without frames for their children immediately after the holidays.



In recent weeks, the supervised day care centers, including WIZO and NAMAT, have gone out to fight for low wages, a severe shortage of workers and to enter into negotiations with decision-makers.

The heads of the dormitory organizations told Walla!

Because they demand that the government "stop escaping responsibility and ignore the caregivers-educators, toddlers and parents. Playing musical chairs with us, each government office transfers us to a different government office like a passing package."



According to them, in the absence of a solution to the manpower shortage, "we will not be able to resume the activities of the dormitories. They can no longer harm the children, parents and dedicated staffs of the dormitories."
