Israel to recruit 10,000 more skilled Indian construction workers

Israel is set to hire up to 10,000 skilled Indian workers in its latest recruitment drive, which began at the Industrial Training Institute (ITI) in Aundh, Pune and will run until September 25. This eight-day drive is a continuation of the initial recruitment conducted earlier this year in Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Telangana, according to officials from the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship.

So far, around 4,800 Indian workers have been deployed to Israel, earning an average monthly salary of Rs 132,000, along with a bonus of Rs 16,000. An additional 1,500 workers from the first batch departed for Israel on September 18, bringing the total number of skilled Indian professionals in the country to over 5,000.

Israel has now expanded its recruitment goals, targeting an additional 10,000 candidates with expertise in four key areas: Framework, Iron Bending, Plastering, and Ceramic Tiling. A delegation of 12 Israeli officials arrived in India on September 16 to oversee the recruitment process. This initiative is part of a Government-to-Government (G2G) agreement signed between India and Israel in November 2023.

The Maharashtra government has provided logistical support at the ITI Aundh facility, where Deputy Director and In-Charge Joint Director Ramakant Bhavsar and his team are coordinating recruitment efforts. The National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) is also involved, preparing candidates for the technical and professional challenges they may face in Israel.

Officials emphasised that the recruitment initiative highlights India’s growing role as a global supplier of skilled human resources in the international job market.
