industrial structure of Israel-Arab and Jewish employed citizens (Table N),
we notice: first, greater segregation between Israeli-Jews and Israeli-
Arabs in the industrial than the occupational structure of employment.
The same finding applies also in earlier years (1958-1963), as in Ben-
Porath's study of the Arab labor force in Israel. In the latter, this
feature applies even in the case of Arab versus Oriental-Jews.1® We can
perhaps attribute the lower differentiation in the Israeli-Arab versus
Jewish occupational structure of employment, at least in part, to a rather
higher segregation experienced systematically in the past (probably for
security considerations) in the industrial structure of Arab employment.
There are more industries than occupational categories that do exclude
Arabs (the diamond industry is one example, and military-related production
is most likely to be so). The concentration of Arab workers in few
specific industries (such as construction) increases their specialization
in related labor categories, resulting in the upgrading of their occupa-
tional structure of employment. Due to some industrial segregation, they
gain skill in those areas of production, thus they become more highly
represented in skilled labor categories, as demonstrated earlier by Table
A.
Another factor that contributes to the relative upgrading of their
occupational structure of employment, that is, the narrowing of the index
of differentiation in that realm, is the residential segregation of the
Arab citizen labor force; a subject more elaborately discussed in the con-
text of Israel's economic structure. This is particularly true in relation
to the social service delivery system, specifically education, health, - تاريخ
