Labor Ministry: Over 1000 domestic workers escape in 2026
Domestic workers in Jordan are facing an unorganized phenomenon of runaway cases, with reports of over a thousand workers fleeing since the beginning of 2026, and approximately 400 of them have been apprehended so far. The Ministry of Labor is working to correct legal violations by forming two inspection and monitoring committees in collaboration with the Public Security to address runaway cases and strengthen protections for workers against exploitation. The ministry emphasizes the importance of legal employment through licensing agencies to safeguard workers' rights and continues awareness campaigns about the risks of fleeing and the potential consequences, including a fine of 800 dinars for those who employ illegal workers.
