Avreichim cant serve as electoral supervisors because of women

According to Kikar, a number of avreichim from Bnei Braq tried to register for training for positions of heads of ballot boxes for the upcoming elections. When they discovered that the training is held without gender segregation, they got upset and are talking about not getting involved and not taking these positions.

besides for earning some decent money on election day, these positions are influential and somewhat help the party ( I am not sure how much it really helps, but the party leaders all think it does, as they all try to maximize their representation).

One of the relevant avreichim explained that he is not going to register for the position and will just give it up. There is no way he is going to sit in a gender-mixed training session. it is ridiculous, he said, that he should be forced to sit without gender segregation.

I do wonder if this avreichm, and the others involved, are aware that the task he is trying to register for is more than just a training session. Is he aware that he will have to sit all day at a table with other electoral supervisors and some of them will be women? Is he aware that he will have to take teudat zehuts from voters, including female voters, and look at their pictures?

Perhaps we can establish a new policy in the Ministry of Interior that female citizens get their faces blurred out on their teudat zehut, or they can get a teudat zehut with no picture, so avreichim at the electoral table shouldn't need to look at their pictures.

So, back to the original, they can't sit in a training session int he same room as a woman, and definitely not next to, but even if that gets resolved how can they serve in the position they are registering for? Why is it ok there but not in the training session?
