Introduction

In 2018, the Government of the Netherlands joined forces with ILO, UNICEF, UNHCR, the World Bank (WB), and the International Finance Corporation (IFC) through a partnership that aims to bring about a paradigm shift towards a development approach on forced displacement and refugee crises by focusing on nexuses between three key pillars: education, employment, and protection. The Partnership to Improve Prospects for Forcibly Displaced Persons and Host Communities (PROSPECTS) is being implemented in eight countries in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) and Horn of Africa, including in Jordan, Lebanon, and Iraq. Through this partnership, the ILO brings significant expertise and experience in supporting enabling environments to underpin inclusive socio-economic growth and decent work, strengthen labor markets and promote access to improved working conditions, fundamental rights at work and social protection.

A critical area of ILO support under the partnership is the extension of social protection to groups of vulnerable workers, including refugees. The ILO in Jordan has worked closely with the Social Security Corporation to establish a multi-donor facility under the national Social Security Corporation (SSC), dedicated to the extension of social security coverage (Emergency Unemployment and Employment Stabilization Fund, EUESF). To operationalize the schemes, both workers and employers will require up-to-date information and assistance to understand their rights, entitlements and the respective procedures. The National Project Coordinator, Social Protection Community Outreach (NOB) will be responsible for ensuring an efficient strategy and strong mechanisms of communication, awareness, outreach and advisory in what relates to PROSPECTS and EUESF project components that engage workers, employers, national institutions and other partners on issues related to social protection.
