(MENAFN- Jordan News Agency) Amman, Sept. 17 (Petra)-- Labour Minister Ali Ghezawi said that the ministry has taken the necessary measures to implement the National Recruitment Programme (NRP) which was approved by the cabinet earlier this month.
At a meeting with the ministry's executives and field directors, attended by International Labour Organization (ILO) Country Coordinator for Jordan, Patrick Daru, and other officials, Ghezawi said the ministry decided to set up a unit to follow up on the program.
The ILO, he added, will provide technical and logistical support to manage the unit, which comprises ILO experts in the sectors targeted by the program.
The minister said that the unit will be responsible for following up and assessing the NRP's projects in an effective manner.
The NRP, which will be run and supervised by the Labour Ministry, includes government procedures to increase the number of Jordanian workers in six main sectors: tourism, industry, construction, agriculture, services and energy.
