The need for additional workers came as a result of the "lack of willingness of Israelis to work in this field," said the Ministry.
The move was carried out in cooperation with the Israel Hotel Association, which points to damage to the ability of hotels to expand their activities and provide the high-quality hospitality experience required for tourists from Israel and abroad. (ANI/TPS)
