Histadrut threatens mega-strike in support of high school teachers
Haaretz - November 6, 2007
The Histadrut threatened Monday to declare a work dispute as a prelude to a
general strike, unless the government entered into "sincere negotiations"
with the striking teachers.
The statement followed the stalemate meeting between Histadrut chairman Ofer
Eini, and Education Minister Yuli Tamir and treasury officials Sunday night.
"If the government doesn't show a willingness to engage in sincere
negotiations, we'll declare a labor dispute, which will enable us to take
significant steps 14 days later," said a senior labor federation official.
"We don't want to reach that situation, but if there's no progress we may
declare a general strike."
