Employing in Jordan
Workers' rights in Jordan are protected by:
- The Jordanian Constitution of 1952,
- Act No. 19 of 2001 on Social Security
- The Jordanian Labour Code of 1996,
- The Flexible Employment Regulation No. 22 of 2017
- The Industrial Accidents and Occupational Diseases Instructions of 1993
— all of which guarantee equal pay for equal work and protections against discrimination based on age, religion, gender expression, and race.
Common questions that could come up during the hiring process include the minimum wage, overtime rates, and guaranteed paid time off. Remote can help you offer a complete, competitive, and compliant benefits package to your employees in Jordan.

Jordan’s minimum wage is fixed at JD 245 ($345.6) per month although skilled employees will negotiate better rates on a case-by-case basis which will tend to be higher than the minimum wage.

Grow your team in Jordan with Remote
You can pay contractors now in Jordan with Remote in some currencies (talk to a Remote expert now for more details).
Companies hiring in Jordan are typically required to either own a legal entity in the country or work with a global employment solutions provider to employ on the company's behalf. Developing the processes required to manage payroll, benefits, taxes, and onboarding in countries like Jordan can get complicated fast, especially without localised expertise. If you’re looking to start hiring in a country like this, using a global HR platform like Remote makes it easy to hire workers in full compliance with all local legislation. In the countries where we do offer our Employer of Record product, Remote takes on responsibility for compliance so you can focus on hiring great talent and growing your business.

Jordan, like many other countries, treats self-employed individuals or contractors and full-time employees differently. Misclassification of contractors in Jordan may lead to fines and penalties for the offending company.
