Government action on 1.5 million non-Jordanian workers
Insurance and social protection expert Musa Al-Subaihi pointed out that the recent decisions to normalize the situation of non-Jordanian workers will help organize a significant portion of them and reduce violations. However, they will not be sufficient to encompass all the estimated 1.5 million workers. He explained that the challenges include the voluntary nature of the procedures, financial costs, the widespread presence of informal work in sectors such as construction and agriculture, difficulties in monitoring and inspection, as well as humanitarian considerations related to refugees. He emphasized that reducing illegal employment requires updating data, automating the employment system, activating social security coverage, and establishing electronic links between work permits and residency records in order to achieve a comprehensive and accurate count.
