Summary
An Israeli workers-rights organisation that has been monitoring mistreatment of Palestinian workers and migrant workers by Israeli employers, whose regular reports Shir Hever uses for the picture of continuing exploitation and of colony employers’ contractor mechanisms (Exploitation of Palestinian Labour in Contemporary Zionist Colonialism, PDF p.2-3 / printed p.125-126).
Details
- The reports paint a picture of workers being overworked for long hours, denied their basic rights and put in extreme physical danger by their Israeli employers (PDF p.2).
- The reports also show that Israeli employers in the colonies in the West Bank have perfected sophisticated mechanisms over time in order to distance themselves from their workers and their responsibility towards them, through local Palestinian contractors (PDF p.2-3).
- No single report by the organisation is cited by title or date in the essay’s notes.
