Funeral Expenses Policy Clarified
The article features an explanation from insurance expert Musa Al-Subihi regarding the regulations for disbursing funeral expenses in Jordan, which currently amount to 700 dinars. This amount is allocated to the deceased’s family in the event of death during a period of service covered by social security, whether due to natural causes or a work-related injury. He confirmed that the amount is paid to all cases without discrimination and mentioned that the law ties the amount to a decision by the Board of Directors of the institution. The amount was increased from 150 dinars to 700 dinars in 2018. Additionally, Al-Subihi called for legislative amendments to include retirees, ensuring they have financial support in the event of their death. This is necessary because retirement pensions are often not fully distributed or may cease altogether, which highlights the need to broaden the coverage to ease burdens on their families.
