It noted that Israel continued law enforcement actions against human trafficking, and established a shelter for labor traffic victims,however the government did not identify the victims, and law enforcement and protection efforts diminished since transferring anti-trafficking duties from Immigration police to the Ministry of Interior.

Famous quotes containing the words migrant and/or workers:

    As soon as the harvest is in, you’re a migrant worker. Afterwards just a bum.
    Nunnally Johnson (1897–1977)

    When men and women across the country reported how happy they felt, researchers found that jugglers were happier than others. By and large, the more roles, the greater the happiness. Parents were happier than nonparents, and workers were happier than nonworkers. Married people were much happier than unmarried people. Married people were generally at the top of the emotional totem pole.
    Faye J. Crosby (20th century)
