Employment Stability
Trainees

 

​Employees who are trainees at the Technion must receive at least 500 employment units on average per semester. This employment scope shall not be reduced during the standard training period (Master’s degree – two years, PhD – four years).
In exceptional cases, and only after approval for supplementary employment has been granted to the trainee, the minimum employment scope may be reduced to 300 employment units.
An application for supplementary employment can be submitted via the form “Application for Approval of Supplementary Employment” (in Hebrew).
In cases of temporary suspension due to parenthood and/or military reserve duty, the eligibility period for employment placement will be extended accordingly.
For more details see the appendix to the  2018 Collective Agreement.
