The Department of Foreign Employment has urged everyone to remain alert to potential fraud in the name of employment in Israel.
According to Department Spokesperson and Information Officer, Kabiraj Upreti, the sending of Nepali migrant workers to Israel-based care homes is currently being facilitated through official channels as per the labor agreement reached between the Nepal Government and Israel. As he said, while discussions are ongoing with Israel regarding the deployment of Nepali migrant workers for agricultural purposes, no conclusive decision has been made yet.
The Department has warned about the activeness of a group of fraudsters falsely claiming to facilitate employment for migrant workers in Israeli farming under the 'Learn and Earn' program.
It is said the Department is minutely investigating the matter.
