A Foreign employee may not change his occupation without changing the permit while the permit is ‎still valid ‎

A Chinese citizen received a permit to stay in Israel and work as a chef. After the permit expired, the employee remained in Israel illegally, worked as a construction worker and at the same time attempted to arrange a permit as such. The employee was caught by the Immigration Authority and was demanded to leave the country immediately. The Court held that a foreign employee is entitled to work only in the industry for which the employee came to Israel. An employee is not entitled to work in any industry is not stated in the permit and may not move to change the field of work after the permit expired and after moving to a different industry without permit and thus the Population and Immigration Authority may order the deportation of the employee from Israel.
