The program outlines the benefits of working legally and the procedures for obtaining work permits. It is part of on-going efforts to formalize the work of Syrian refugees in Jordan, the ILO said in a statement.
The program will initially be used by 500 Syrians in Irbid, Mafraq, Zarqa, and Amman who work in the construction sector and the agricultural sector, where a large number of the workers are women.
