Jordan Free Trade Agreement and labor abuse in the export factories.



Here's a link to a report that is coming out tomorrow. It is from the Institute for Global labor and Human Rights.

The President and Vice President are travelling to Jordan tomorrow (Friday 22nd March) to discuss the “agreement to a new initiative aimed at promoting labor rights and improving working conditions in Jordan."

Hopefully, they will discuss how human rights abuses will become a thing of the past. Let us hope the spirit of spring and rebirth in nature takes hold here too. At the moment, these abuses are still taking place, as the report points out.
I'll keep you posted on any updates.
