A total of 2,252 young Sri Lankans have been granted employment opportunities in Israel’s agricultural sector, following an agreement between the governments of Sri Lanka and Israel.
As part of the arrangement, 69 individuals received their airline tickets yesterday at the Sri Lanka Bureau of Foreign Employment, with their departure scheduled for September 12 and 18.
Under this agreement, Sri Lankans are allowed to work in Israel for a period of 5 years and 5 months. The selection process is managed through a lottery system conducted by Israel’s FIBA organization, with the Sri Lanka Bureau of Foreign Employment facilitating the necessary procedures.
The Bureau also cautioned the public against making payments to external parties, as only authorized government entities are involved in the recruitment process for these jobs.
