In recent years a worrying trend of infringement of the rights of workers and of those seeking work has intensified; as a result, many people in Israel, especially those belonging to the weakest sectors of society, are unable to exercise their right to work in dignity.  ACRI has prioritized the area of workers&#8217; rights and the rights of those seeking work, and seeks to place this issue high on the public agenda. <\/p>\n<p>Photo by: Sarit Eliya <\/p>\n<p><strong>Resources on Workers&#8217;  Rights:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/?p=719\">Responding to ACRI Appeal, State Doesn&#8217;t Renew Detrimental Welfare-to-Work Plan<\/a>, April 2010<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/?p=666\">Problematic Welfare-to-Work &#8216;Wisconsin Plan&#8217; will not be Expanded<\/a>, July 2009<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/?p=679\">May 1 Educational Kits Highlight Rights of Workers<\/a>, May 2009<\/p>\n<p><a  href=\"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/?p=636\">Human Rights Groups to Finance Minister: Don&#8217;t Expand Wisconsin Plan<\/a>, April 2009<\/p>\n<p><a  href=\"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/?p=487\">State Pledges to Cease Age  Discrimination against Job-Seekers,  Following ACRI Petition<\/a>, April 2008<\/p>\n<p><a  href=\"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/?p=506\">ACRI Brings About Precedent-Setting Ruling with Cancellation of Loss Tender<\/a>, April  2008 <\/p>\n<p><a  href=\"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/pdf\/workersrights2007.pdf\">Forum for Enforcing Labor  Rights<\/a>, Summary of Activities for  2007<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a  href=\"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/?p=512\">ACRI Challenges \u201cLoss Tender\u201d for  Subcontracted Security Guards<\/a>, May 2007 <\/p>\n<div class='footnote'><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The right to work and to decent working conditions is one of the most basic human rights, and is recognized &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/2008\/02\/20\/rights-of-workers\/\">Read more<span class=\"meta-nav\">&#8230;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[26],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-265","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-social-and-economic-rights"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/265","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=265"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/265\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9728,"href":"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/265\/revisions\/9728"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=265"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=265"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/law.acri.org.il\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=265"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
