The Histadrut national labor federation announced on Monday afternoon 4 Teves that on Wednesday, 6 Teves, Jerusalem bus service will halt beginning at 5:00AM for a “one day warning strike”.

The labor union blames Egged management and the state for being irresponsible towards drivers. Histadrut leader Avi Nissankoren warns “Egged is near collapse and it is sad that instead of strengthening the drivers who carry out their work dutifully, the opposite occurs”.
