    Since Palestininans are banned from working in Occupiers farms, they turn to foreign labour instead... cheap labour. And their treatment is as bad or worst than their Arab counterpart.



    Jews aren't racist either...


    A Raw Deal: Abuse of Thai Workers in Israel’s Agricultural Sector | HRW

    From 2008 to 2013, according to government figures reported by the Israeli daily Haaretz, 122 Thai workers died in Israel, including 43 from “sudden nocturnal death syndrome,” which affects young and healthy Asian men, five from suicide, and 22 for unknown reasons because Israeli police did not request a post-mortem. Israeli Knesset member Dov Khenin of the Hadash party said it was “inconceivable that so many healthy young men die without alarms going off.”

    Human Rights Watch met with 10 groups of Thai workers in farming communities known as moshavim in the north, center, and south of the country, and all of them said they were paid salaries significantly below the legal minimum wage, forced to work long hours in excess of the legal maximum, subjected to unsafe working conditions, and denied their right to change employers. In all but one of the 10 communities where we documented living conditions, Thai workers were housed in makeshift and inadequate accommodations. Only workers in one of the 10 groups Human Rights Watch interviewed were able to show us salary slips, and these were written in Hebrew, and did not accurately reflect the hours that workers had worked, the workers said.

    At one farm, Thai workers showed Human Rights Watch researchers the makeshift accommodations they had constructed out of cardboard boxes, erected inside farm sheds. Workers at several farms listed a range of maladies, including headaches, respiratory problems, and burning sensations in their eyes, that they attributed to spraying pesticides without adequate protection; some workers said they had relatives in Thailand send them medicines on account of their inability to access medical care. Workers also complained that their employers over-charged them for accommodations and utilities, and artificially inflated the price of certain goods in shops in isolated moshavim where the workers, who often lacked the time, means of transportation, and even rudimentary information about other towns and cities in Israel to travel elsewhere, had no option but to buy food.
