Agreements
The trade Union managed to sign (15) fifteen
collective agreements with business owners. Fifteen thousand
workers have benefited from them. They preserved to workers
higher wages, better work conditions, free transportation
and medical insurance and many other advantages. For the
first time in Jordan we could agree with some factory to
give its workers 5% of the annual net profit. Furthermore,
the trade union signed historical agreement with one big
company concerning a piece of land that the government
granted to the workers for building housing. The struggle
between the trade union and that company continued for 30
years. By this agreement it ended up with compensating (161)
workers with US$ (352) Thousand.
