percent in 1974 and 1973, respectively. According to Labor Force Survey
1974:
"The percentage of Jews in the labour force in the 14-17 age
group continued to decrease: 26.5% in 1967, 23.3% in 1970,
19.6% in 1973 and 16.2% in 1974, both among men and women.
It is possible to explain the decrease in the participation
of the 14-17 age group in the civilian labour force by the
rise in the percentage of those studying in this age group
[74.4Z%]....
Among Jewish men in the 18-24 age group there was also a
long-term trend of decrease in the percentage of those in
the labour force: 47.2% in 1967, 41.8% in 1970, 41.0% in
1972, 41.2% in 1973 and 35.2% in 1974. Again, among Jewish
men in the 25-34 age group there was a decrease in the per-
centage of those in the civilian labour force: 92.7% in 1967,
90.1% in 1970, 89.2% in 1973 and 86.9% in 1974. The decrease
can only partially be explained by the increase in the percent
of those studying and not working aged 18-34.
Among Jewish women in the 25+ age group there was a rise in
the percentage of participation in the labour force: among
the 25-34 age group from 32.8% in 1967, 37.3% in 1970, 42.7%
in 1973 and 46.2% in 1974.
Finally it seems that a part of the decrease in the labour
force participation among the younger ages can be explained
by the increase in percentage of those studying (14-17 ages),
increase in the number of those on compulsory army service
(18-34 ages) and a larger number of people called up to re-
serve and regular army service (25-34 ages) and in the last
two age groups--an increase in those studying and not working." 29
Furthermore, the proportion of those in the civilian labor force but
temporarily absent from work has, in October-December 1973, during the
war time, reached 253,000, compared with 71,000 a year after the War and
30
with 52,000 a year before the War.
In sum, trends in the Jewish labor force participation patterns
seem to differ much in the post-1967 phase from those mentioned previously.
Their declining percentage in the civilian labor force, due to extending
schooling time or to absorption by the army service are inseparable from - تاريخ
