Jordan Job Market Insights
In 2025, the Jordanian labor market recorded the highest number of new job opportunities in years, with a net of 87,617 new jobs for Jordanian nationals. The total number of employment opportunities decreased to 95,122, down by 1.3% compared to 2024, but there was a 0.8% increase in opportunities for Jordanians and a 21.1% decline for non-Jordanians. The private sector has become the main driver of employment creation, accounting for 73.1% of opportunities in the second half of the year. However, challenges remain regarding the adequacy of work conditions and the sustainability of jobs, especially considering that the majority of opportunities were concentrated among young people aged 20-29, while opportunities for older adults doubled. This reflects a need to boost economic growth, expand economic activity geographically, and improve the quality and relevance of jobs to meet market demands, ensuring the sustainability of employment opportunities and reducing unemployment rates.
