Jordanian workers ‘not qualified’ for sector requirements: Restaurants, Sweets Shops Association – Roya News English

Monday, the head of the Jordan Association for Restaurants and Sweets Shops Owners Omar Al-Awwad confirmed that the sector is witnessing a continuous decline due to high costs.

Awwad told Roya that restaurants no longer make a profit after last year's rise in the prices of most basic commodities (20-25 percent), which weakened people's purchasing power.

He added that the private sector lacks partnership with the public sector and, in the rare cases that it happens, the opinion of the association is 'not taken into consideration.'.
