Status of Human Rights in Palestine of peaceful assemblies by force, and stop the detention and summoning of activists and advocates of peaceful assemblies. It is recommended that the MOI investigates their complaints and make essential amendments to the law concerning cybercrimes to make it consistent with the international human rights standards and the Palestinian Basic Law. 2.2 Variables on the Situation of Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights 2.2.1 34 The Right to Work The unemployment rate continued rising among the labor force, recording 43.6% in Gaza Strip versus 18.1% in the West Bank, growing by 1.9% in Gaza Strip as compared with 2016. The women employment rate continued dropping, and the men employment rate recorded 71.2% versus a women employment rate of 19.0%, out of the total number of labor force. The child labor rate decreased, as the rate of child labor in the age group 10-17 years recorded 3.4%; 4.6% in the West Bank and 1.7% in the Gaza Strip. Failure to integrate the informal labor sector under the legal protection continued where the rate of individuals working in the informal sector reached 29.0%; 31,2% in the West Bank and 23.5% in Gaza Strip. ICHR concluded that the procedures and activities performed by the MOL to reduce unemployment do not live up to the magnitude and rate of such phenomenon, which requires bigger interventions and budgets than the current ones in place, especially in Gaza Strip, where the government efforts and remedies are still incapable of achieving the minimum level required. Further, the MOL did not adopt any measures or procedures to improve women labor and empowerment and women’s right in equality and indiscrimination in work, and to protect the informal economic sectors. Further, the MOL failed to review the decision of national minimum wage and to detect incompliance therewith. The MOL failed to adopt new mechanisms to ensure monitoring and follow-up of all work sectors, and failed to adopt procedures and measures to enforce amending of the minimum wage decision on a regular basis. The MOL also failed to provide a healthy work environment consistent with the 23rd Annual Report 1 January - 31 December 2017
