Smart Desert – Labor rights study
Client: Blumont
Implementation year: 2021
ConsultUS is conducting a study on labor rights and work conditions for Blumont in Jordan to study the work conditions for Syrian refugees and vulnerable Jordanians in the agricultural sector. The study comes as part of Blumont’s three-years project aiming at supporting Syrian refugees and Jordanians working in the agriculture sector in the North-East Badia Highlands assessing and ensuring whether farmers have work permits; whether farmers and workers understand their rights, insurance benefits, safety protocols at worksites, and whether the government stakeholders are monitoring these rights at farms and of farmers.
