Helping Israeli War Victims Return to Work

With Israeli industries severely impacted by the October 7 attacks, Federation is helping unemployed Israelis return to the workplace through rehabilitation and reskilling. We are helping both employers and the jobless from the construction, tourism and agriculture industries rebuild their businesses and lives. The program aims to help 10,000 middle managers upgrade their professional capabilities and offers an online career guidance center that informs jobseekers of employment opportunities. The program is further integrating jobseekers in the north and south, including evacuees, into the workforce through instruction that upskills and reskills them. Employment rehabilitation for up to 1,000 mentally or physically injured war victims is facilitating their gradual return to work.
