Histadrut labor federation warns of total strike unless Finance Ministry compromises on contract workers.
Despite earlier optimism, an impasse in negotiations means general strike will continue at least until Sunday.
The Histadrut launched a general strike to help contract workers, but it was those contract workers who actually had to report to work.
National Labor Court rules that the Histadrut won't be allowed to launch a general strike for another three weeks.
