Jordan halts foreign worker recruitment
The Ministry of Labor announced decisive measures to regulate the non-Jordanian labor market. Currently, the recruitment process is limited to specific sectors, including domestic workers, the clothing industry, and projects in economic development zones and free zones. The aim is to reduce dependence on foreign labor and ease tensions in the market. It is noted that there are over 72,000 valid work permits in the agricultural sector alone, alongside efforts to deport illegal workers to ensure stability among those complying with the law. This decision comes amid concerns about a labor shortage during the harvest season, with the ministry emphasizing that existing workers will not be restricted and that market needs will continue to be met in an organized manner.
