Abstract
This research examines the consequences of bilateral agreements that Israel has signed with different countries. It also examines agreements signed by Israel with foreign construction companies, bypassing employment arrangements established by the Israeli government. The results indicate that the bilateral agreements have succeeded in significantly reducing the brokerage fees. However, it is not possible to determine the degree to which these agreements contribute to the protection of the rights of the employees. In comparison, the arrangements with the foreign construction companies which bypass the bilateral agreements could enable exploitation and human trafficking, which the bilateral agreements have managed to reduce.
