Social security does not ensure a good life
The 2024 Social Security Corporation Report shows that more than half of retirees receive pensions no higher than 400 Jordanian dinars, with around 75% earning less than 500 dinars. This amount is insufficient to meet their basic needs and ensure a decent standard of living. The situation faced by retirees, such as Ahmad, who has lost a significant portion of his pension and faces health risks, clearly indicates that the social security system does not guarantee a dignified life for them. This is especially evident given the rising poverty rates among retirees and the low pensions that fail to cover essential expenses.
