הטכניון האוניברסיטה העברית אוניברסיטת תל אביב אוניברסיטת בר אילן אוניברסיטת בן גוריון אוניברסיטת חיפה מכון ויצמן למדע Israel Lost a Generation of Brilliant Young Scholars The number of Faculty in Israel was reduced by 15.63%, from 5359 to 4521 between 2001 and Eight hundred positions were lost. This number is equal to a faculty in a medium sized university (e.g. The Technion plus Weizmann Institute) The brilliant young faculty who did not get positions in Israel immigrated and got positions in the best universities of the USA

הטכניון האוניברסיטה העברית אוניברסיטת תל אביב אוניברסיטת בר אילן אוניברסיטת בן גוריון אוניברסיטת חיפה מכון ויצמן למדע Overall Erosion Direct erosion: The number of Faculty decreased by 15.63% Direct erosion: The number of Students increased by 9.7% Indirect erosion Our salary eroded by 22.13% to 90.1% in comparison with any relevant sector.

הטכניון האוניברסיטה העברית אוניברסיטת תל אביב אוניברסיטת בר אילן אוניברסיטת בן גוריון אוניברסיטת חיפה מכון ויצמן למדע How Did the Erosion in The Salary Happen? Unlike the public sector, the faculty does not have any mechanism to prevent erosion in salary

הטכניון האוניברסיטה העברית אוניברסיטת תל אביב אוניברסיטת בר אילן אוניברסיטת בן גוריון אוניברסיטת חיפה מכון ויצמן למדע  A compensation for a decade-long erosion in our salaries in comparison with the public sector (i.e. 35%)  Avoiding future erosion in our salaries and future strikes. What Are We Demanding?

הטכניון האוניברסיטה העברית אוניברסיטת תל אביב אוניברסיטת בר אילן אוניברסיטת בן גוריון אוניברסיטת חיפה מכון ויצמן למדע Why go back to 1997? In 2001 we were forced, because of the Intifada and the economic crisis, to accept an agreement that ignored the actual erosion in our salaries since A clause was introduced into the agreement allowing us to demand the compensation for the erosion “in the future”. The clause and the demand were acknowledged by the Committee of University Presidents (Vera).

הטכניון האוניברסיטה העברית אוניברסיטת תל אביב אוניברסיטת בר אילן אוניברסיטת בן גוריון אוניברסיטת חיפה מכון ויצמן למדע We Waited Patiently For the Intifada to end For the submission of the Shochat committee’s decisions For the end of the negotiations with the Histadrut

הטכניון האוניברסיטה העברית אוניברסיטת תל אביב אוניברסיטת בר אילן אוניברסיטת בן גוריון אוניברסיטת חיפה מכון ויצמן למדע Since February 2006, We Warned Both the Treasury and Vera. That ignoring the erosion in our salaries will eventually lead to a strike That we cannot suffice with a 9.4% increase in our salaries (and certainly not with a raise of 4.7%) when the erosion alone is of 35%

הטכניון האוניברסיטה העברית אוניברסיטת תל אביב אוניברסיטת בר אילן אוניברסיטת בן גוריון אוניברסיטת חיפה מכון ויצמן למדע What Should Be Done? The government should start a serious, non stop negotiation over the relevant issues. The government should raise and upgrade the rank of the negotiators in order to reach decisions. Vera should back and support the faculty, as they promised to do back in 2001.
