Jordan
The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan became a member of the ILO in 1956, ten years after gaining independence. Jordan has ratified 26 ILO Conventions, including seven of the eight Fundamental conventions. The government, the social partners and the ILO are implementing the Decent Work Country Programme 2018-22. It focuses on creating jobs for social cohesion; enhancing working conditions for all, to enable fair access to the labour market; and building the capacities of social partners.
