Al-Sabihi warns of social security declines
Experts point to a decline in the number of active subscribers in Jordan's social security system, which decreased from approximately 1.664 million at the end of 2025 to 1.639 million by the end of August 2026—a loss of around 25,000 subscribers over eight months. This decline has been considered unusual, as the numbers had been steadily increasing despite thousands of insured individuals retiring each year. Specialists are calling for an urgent review of the reasons behind this decrease and emphasize the need to hold dialogue sessions with experts and specialists to implement practical measures to address the gap and restore growth in both the subscriber base and insurance coverage before the end of 2026. This can be achieved through improving facilitation programs and procedures for inclusive insurance coverage.
