This work addresses the issue of a significant number of work related accidents and
injuries in Jordan. It does so by understanding the Occupational Safety and Health
(OSH) situation in the country through the presentation and examination of the
available records and numbers for these accidents and injuries. It was found in this
work that only a part of Jordan’s work accidents and injuries are being reported and
recorded, while many of the country’s workers are not covered by such records. The
study’s main findings showed that in the year 2010, the country suffered around 37
work injuries every day, and one worker died every 200 occurring work accidents.
About half of the recorded work accidents took place in the industrial sector. The
research helped in understanding how work safety conditions can be improved by
presenting measures and advices.
