Final deadline to fix illegal employment
The article discusses the decision by the Jordanian government to grant a grace period extending until September 30, 2026, for employers and individuals to correct the status of illegal foreign workers. The goal is to regulate the labor market and alleviate financial burdens on employers, while offering financial exemptions that include reduced permit fees and penalties related to non-renewal. The decision also aims to allow non-Jordanian workers to transfer between sectors, with certain exceptions, and to enhance compliance with labor laws by establishments. Additionally, it ensures strict measures against violators after the grace period ends, with intensified inspection campaigns to curb illegal employment. This measure provides an opportunity for those with violations to rectify their status and reduce legal risks, with directives from the ministry to relevant authorities to take advantage of the exemptions before the deadline.
