Harases stressed the importance of
working to replace guest workers with Jordanian workers through a mechanism
that does not affect the
private sector or investments in the Kingdom.
Inspection campaigns will be intensified,
in accordance with new strategies and in cooperation with the Ministry of
Interior and the
Public Security Directorate; they will target all employers
and migrant workers in all sectors in the Kingdom, to ensure that employers
abide by decisions and laws that are in their and their employees’ best
interest, and to address distortions in the labor market, said Steitieh.
