The government has revealed a new plan to help Arab academics integrate in the workplace by offering 9,000 shekels to anyone who employs an Arab academic for at least nine months. The plan will be put into action in the upcoming days.



The initiative was the brainchild of officials in the Economic Development in Minority Sectors department of the Prime Minister's Office and in the  Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor.

Ayman Sayif, manager of the Economic Development in Minority Sectors department, explained that many Arabs with advanced degrees “encounter difficulties when they try to join the workforce in the private sector.”

“The new plan is meant to increase their chances of finding work,” he said.

Finance Minister Yuval Steinitz said Tuesday that he plans to work to increase the number of Arab workers in government ministries. “Integrating Arabs in the Israeli economy is a mission of national importance,” he declared.

This is law that is going into effect and not something that Knesset is going to vote on?   :'(

Infuriating and nauseating to the extreme.  Give those Arabs 9,000 shekels to bus elsewhere where they can use their prestigious degrees. -- Why should Israeli Jews be made less attractive to hire?  Arabs MAKE themselves undesirable to hire by the virtue of being almost entirely antisemitic as a society, as well as being a 5th column in Israel.
