Are government actions supporting 1.5 million non-Jordanian workers
The article discussed the efforts of the Jordanian government to regularize the status of undocumented foreign workers. It explained that these measures could help organize a significant portion of the approximately 1.5 million illegal workers, but they will not achieve a complete census due to structural and operational challenges. Experts pointed out that the voluntary nature of the regularization process, financial costs, the prevalence of informal work, as well as difficulties in monitoring and inspections, hinder the creation of an accurate and comprehensive database. They also emphasized that achieving a complete count requires reliance on automation and electronic data linking, while taking into account humanitarian considerations and the legal status of workers residing under asylum programs.
