Labour minister opens new employment unit at ACI’s industrial sector division

AMMAN — Labour Minister Yousef Shamali at the Amman Chamber of Industry (ACI) headquarters on Monday inaugurated the employment unit in the industrial sector, which was established by the ACI in cooperation with the employment project “Jordan 2030”, implemented by the German Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ).

The unit aims at providing a qualified workforce for factories and employing more Jordanian workers in industrial companies. Shamali expressed his hope that the unit would help connect jobseekers with factories, according to a ministry statement.

The minister called for coordination between the unit and the national employment programme launched by the ministry to ensure that as many Jordanians as possible find employment, especially as the industrial sector is the largest employer of employees in the private sector.
