Success Story: Flexible Working Hours Policy Reform  

Jordan Workforce Development Project submitted a flexible working hours policy paper to the Ministry of Labor (MOL) in 2016. In January 2017, the MOL submitted this policy paper to the Jordanian Government Cabinet, which approved the flexible work hours policy. In honor of March 2017’s International Women’s Day, King Abdullah II endorsed the Cabinet’s by-law on flexible hours through the issuance of a Royal Decree.
