Absorption of immigrants in the first decade of the state With the establishment of the state, mass immigration to Israel began and within a few years the population of Israel doubled. The Histadrut, which took responsibility for preparing the infrastructure for the absorption of immigrants, set up systems of social services.
During the first decade of the state, with the background of the war of independence and a difficult economic situation, the Histadrut established through Solel Boneh, more than 150,000 housing units, most of which were intended for immigrants and paved roads in the frontier and development areas. At the same time, the Histadrut established, through the corporation Koor, industrial plants, while creating new sources of employment for thousands of immigrants such as Alliance, Telrad, Soltam and more.
