Member of Knesset Shelly Yechimovich (Zionist Union) is calling on Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu to stop dealing with the public broadcasting corporation and solve the crisis at Haifa Chemicals.
More than a thousand people face layoffs as a result of the closing of the company's ammonia tank in Haifa. A candidate to lead the Histadrut Labor Federation, Yechimovich said, Tuesday, "The company's employees were abandoned by the government and the labor dispute declared by the Histadrut yesterday is in the 'too little, too late' department."
