Bialik Square, at the heart of Tel Aviv, has never witnessed such an event: a mass meeting, assembled by the workers of Bialik Center, organized by the independent Trade Union Center WAC-MAAN, celebrating May Day.
At the beginning of October 2012, a delegation of the Workers Advice Center (WAC-Maan) visited Denmark and the Netherlands to strengthen ties with local unions there. Delegation members included WAC executive director Assaf Adiv and a representative of the Salit Quarries workers, Niaz Kadadha, from ’Atara, near Ramallah in the West Bank. The delegation emphasized WAC’s uniqueness as a union developed in partnership by Jews and Arabs, committed to struggling for every worker regardless of his or her religious or ethnic background.
