Zusammenfassung
This report is issued to explore the working conditions of workers in Ports Corporation in terms of wages, bonuses, job stability. Also to assess the occupational safety and health standards in the working fields, to find out if the funda¬mental labor rights, including social security, are applied as specified by the Jor¬danian labor legislations presented in the Labor Law and other relevant regulations. The main reason behind issuing this report the frequent strikes and protests carried out by work¬ers at the Ports Corporation in Aqaba during the past three years. The report points to the deep-rooted crisis between the workers and the administration and presents in numbers the various difficulties the ports workers are facing on daily basis including the daily workers. At the end of the report the following recommendation are presented to concerned authority: Applying the relevant labor laws and regulations to all workers in the Ports Corporation without discrim¬ination, implementing the collective agreements, between the workers, their union committee and the management, improving the occupation¬al safety and health standards in Aqaba Port docks to protect workers, unifying administra¬tive references dealing with the workers, applying decent work conditions and standards to all workers. The report comes as part of a series of reports issued by the Jordanian Labor Watch Project.
