A Tel Aviv court ruled on Tuesday that 10 Palestinians who were employed by Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael – Jewish National Fund (KKL-JNF) for decades without proper employee rights and who were fired were discriminated against due to their origin.
The Tel Aviv Labor Court ordered the 10 workers be rehired and compensated. Eight of them will become permanent employees, The Times of Israel’s sister site Zman Yisrael reported.
Some KKL-JNF officials and the lawyer for the fired employees had charged that the layoffs stemmed from “nationalist and racist” motives, in order to replace Arab workers with Jewish ones. Some KKL-JNF officials were critical of the management’s layoff scheme following The Times of Israel reporting. (The Jewish National Fund-KKL is unrelated to Jewish National Fund-USA.)
