                    [Title] => Loss of Israel labor market to cost $500-M
                    [Summary] => About $500 million in remittances from overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) could be lost once Israel closes its labor market to foreign workers.


The closure would result in huge financial and employment losses to OFWs and local recruitment agencies, the United Philippine Manpower Agencies for Israel Association Inc. (UPMAIAI) said yesterday.


Ramon Estrella, UPMAIAI president, said the Philippines deploys an average of 4,000 Filipino workers to Israel every year, with their monthly income ranging from $500 to $1,000.

                    [Summary] => Israeli Ambassador Irit Ben-Abba has given assurance that undocumented Filipino workers in Israel will not get inhumane treatment when they are deported.


Ben-Abba said illegal workers in Israel will be housed in a special shelter where they will be granted a minimum of 72 hours to seek assistance.


"I can guarantee that illegal workers will be treated in a humane and respectable manner," she said in a letter to the United Manpower Agencies for Israel Association Inc. "Israel is a signatory to the international treaties related to labor issues."
