Histadrut Labor Federation Chairman Avi Nissenkorn has welcomed the cabinet's approval of reform in the electricity sector.

Nissenkorn said, "The reform strengthens the electricity sector, while maintaining the strength of the electric company and ensuring the rights of the workers. We have proved once again that with dialogue and agreement, the Histadrut is able to be a partner in any move that brings genuine good news to Israeli society. The reform approved today by the government is a balanced reform that is good for the economy and good for the public."
