| Summary: | Jordan as a country that is well-known for its safety in the Middle East, has always hosted different refugees’ groups from neighbouring and other countries, who were escaping political persecution, wars or other types of discrimination. Today Jordan hosts the second-highest share of refugees per capita, which has increased the loads on the country’s limited natural resources (water and energy), public services and its saturated job market. Accordingly, this PhD dissertation is focusing on the current labour regulations that have been implemented to several refugees’ groups in Jordan, mainly Palestinians, Iraqis and Syrians. In addition to assessing the work conditions refugees have been facing, as well as analysing the available work opportunities for them. The study is based on a collective case study approach, where integration of comprehensive exploratory and comparative techniques was used. |
