Separate bureaus and procedures; refusal by clerks to receive documents
A new report by the WAC-MAAN Trade Union reveals that the East Jerusalem branches of the National Insurance Institute (NII = Bituach Leumi) and the Employment Bureau (EB) behave contrary to protocol in all that pertains to receiving claims, documents, and job requests. The two have erected an apparatus for denying benefits to the Palestinian claimants of East Jerusalem, the most poverty stricken sector in Israel.
The panel on Palestinian workers and jobless battling for survival in East Jerusalem and Area C, will be held on Monday, June 1, at Notre Dame Hotel in Jerusalem, at 5 pm. At 6:30 pm, the Annual General Assembly of WAC-MAAN will be held, attended by representatives of affiliated committees and representatives of WAC-MAAN chapters.

The National Insurance Institute and the Employment Bureau serve a government policy to push Palestinians beyond the wall and “enhance Israeli sovereignty”
The following report was issued on July 17, 2012 to the Employment Bureau (EB) director, Mr. Boaz Hirsh, regarding the East Jerusalem Employment Service offices. This report was compiled by Erez Wagner, Dima Darawshe and attorney Aya Bartenstein and relates to the severely degrading conditions of the EB in East Jerusalem. See also – Haaretz on WAC’s report.
