Social Security, Education for Employment Jordan Sign MoU to Support Job Seekers

Amman, Aug. 18 (Petra) — The Social Security Corporation (SSC) and
the Education for Employment Jordan (EFE-Jordan) signed a memorandum
of understanding (MoU) to provide job seekers with access to
employment-linked training programs through the SSC’s “Forsatak”
electronic platform.

The “Forsatak” platform connects job seekers with private-sector
establishments, helping employers identify qualified candidates and
linking job seekers with free training and qualification programs
provided by EFE-Jordan.

The MoU was signed by SSC Director General Hazem Rahhalah and
EFE-Jordan Director General Ghadeer Khafash as part of cooperation
between the two institutions to develop joint initiatives supporting
job seekers and connecting them with available training and
employment opportunities in line with labor market needs.

Under the MoU, job seekers registered on the SSC’s “Forsatak”
platform will have access to training and qualification programs
implemented by EFE-Jordan. Candidates who meet the relevant
eligibility requirements and criteria will be able to participate in
the programs to develop their skills and improve their readiness to
enter the labor market.

“Forsatak” is one of the SSC’s digital initiatives aimed at
connecting job seekers with private-sector establishments. The
platform allows job seekers to enter their resumes and professional
experience, while enabling establishments to access suitable
candidates. It also documents job seekers’ work experience based on
their Social Security contribution records.

The two sides said the MoU would support cooperation between national
institutions and coordinate efforts to promote employment through
partnerships aimed at preparing national workers to meet labor market
needs.
