Taasuka Shava

What Taasuka Shava does

Taasuka Shava (תעסוקה שווה) is a nationwide Israeli government employment program operated under the Staff for Integration of People with Disabilities at the Ministry of Labor, founded in 2020 and headquartered in Tel Aviv. The program consolidates all employment services for people with disabilities (those with 20%+ recognized disability, disabled veterans, terror attack victims, work accident victims, and since 2023 individuals in the National Insurance Institute recognition process following Operation Iron Swords) and their employers under a single coordinated framework. Core services include personalized employment guidance, job placement, professional training subsidized at 60-80% of cost, workplace accommodation consulting, mentoring, employer training, and up to 12 months of post-placement accompaniment.

The service delivery model is operations- and field-driven rather than technology-driven. There is no proprietary platform; service delivery runs through a physical network of 25+ employment centers across Israel (Tel Aviv, Haifa, Beer Sheva, Jerusalem, and numerous peripheral locations), a dedicated *3968 hotline, WhatsApp, email, and Zoom-based remote support. Two private limited companies act as regional operators: Ravdaim Karriya Ltd. for the Central region and Synergia Employment Encouragement Ltd. for the North, South, and Jerusalem regions, both under Ministry oversight.

The program is funded entirely by government budgets, with no fees charged to either job seekers or employers. Ancillary benefits include state subsidies covering 60-80% of training costs, placement grants of 2,000 ILS for participants completing training and finding field employment, and persistence bonuses up to 2,000 ILS. The employer base spans 4,000+ Israeli companies across defense, technology, pharma, manufacturing, finance, and shipping; named logos include Coca-Cola, Elbit Systems, Intel, Rafael, ZIM, Taro, Meitav Dash, Plasson, and Ort Brauda. The program's website (taasukashava.org.il) is WCAG 2.1 AA compliant with the Userway accessibility widget integrated.

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Randstad: Global staffing firm with disability employment and inclusion initiatives across Europe and elsewhere. Overlaps with Taasuka Shava on job placement and employer support services but as part of a much broader commercial staffing portfolio.
• ManpowerGroup: Major global staffing company operating workforce inclusion programs including for people with disabilities. Comparable in offering job matching, training, and employer consulting, though serves a much broader workforce population.
• Adecco Group (Adecco Disability Solutions): Global staffing leader with established disability employment programs and government contracts in multiple countries. Comparable in delivering employment matching and workplace accommodation services, but operating at much larger scale and across geographies.

Direct peers

• Specialisterne: International nonprofit/social enterprise focused on employment of people with disabilities (notably autism) through assessment, job matching, and employer support. Closest functional peer to Taasuka Shava's vocational rehabilitation mission, though operates globally and independently rather than as a government program.
• AbilityOne Program: US federal program that creates employment opportunities for people with disabilities through government contracts with nonprofit agencies. Similar government-mandated, employment-focused model for individuals with significant disabilities, though oriented toward contracted work rather than open-market placement.
• Vocational Rehabilitation Services (US state programs): US state-federal vocational rehabilitation agencies (administered via ODEP) provide assessment, training, and placement services for individuals with disabilities. Direct functional analog to Taasuka Shava as government-administered disability employment programs serving a similar mission.

Others

• Disability:IN: US nonprofit resource and corporate membership organization advancing disability inclusion in business. Comparable in driving employer engagement on hiring and retention of employees with disabilities, including training and consulting services.
• Job Accommodation Network (JAN): US-based free consulting service that provides individualized workplace accommodation solutions to employers and people with disabilities. Already cited as a knowledge resource by Taasuka Shava; comparable focus on accommodation guidance and employer education.
