The Israeli Nurses' Union is threatening to declare a labor dispute and strike if the Health Ministry does not immediately enter negotiations over staffing shortages and alleged breach of the nurses' collective agreement, according to Kan.
The Israeli Nurses' Union has issued an ultimatum to the Health Ministry: open immediate negotiations on chronic staffing shortages and alleged violations of the nurses' collective agreement, or face a labor dispute and strike. The threat was reported this morning by Kan public broadcaster. The union's demand centers on what it describes as an acute shortage of authorized nursing positions (takanim) and the ministry's alleged failure to uphold contractual commitments. This adds to ongoing labor tensions in Israel's healthcare system, which has faced repeated staffing strains.
