The State Comptroller noted in the report's conclusion that an improvement in employment figures in Haredi society could benefit the public and the entire economy. "This task falls on the management of every organization in the civil service and on the Civil Service Commission, as it is responsible for managing human capital in the service. It is recommended, among other things, that the Civil Service Commission take effective action to ensure that, as a general rule, government bodies meet government goals for adequate representation of all eligible population groups, including at senior levels.".
