7 March 2019

His Royal Highness Crown Prince Al Hussein bin Abdullah II paid a surprise visit on Thursday to the Ministry of Labour’s Amman first district employment directorate and was briefed on the procedures of receiving job seeker applications.

Crown Prince Al Hussein spoke to a number of young men and women during the visit, and directed the relevant staff at the Ministry of Labour to provide them with the needed facilitations.

His Royal Highness was briefed by Labour Minister Samir Murad on employment and training programmes implemented by the ministry in cooperation with the private sector.

These programmes aim to present employment opportunities within the national framework for empowerment and employment, while an electronic system enables job seekers to submit applications for available vacancies and allows employers to view job seeker data and qualifications.

Murad said employment directorates around the Kingdom’s governorates provide professional guidance to job seekers and help connect them with the private sector.
