Abstract

The Jordanian Constitution guarantees the right to work for all Jordanian citizens in Articles 6 and 23. It grants them many rights derived from this right within the provisions of the labour law. The research aims to investigate the constitutionality of Articles 6 and 23 of the Jordanian Constitution. The descriptive analytical approach aims to describe and analyze the constitutional and legal texts related to the termination of employment contracts in Jordan, while also analyzing the data gathered from interviews. The comparative approach identified the strengths and weaknesses of Jordanian legislation by comparing it with legislation from other countries. Using a case study approach, the researchers analyzed specific issues related to the termination of employment contracts in Jordan for economic and technical reasons. The text of Article 31/d of the Labor Law is contrary to all constitutional principles that guarantee fair trial guarantees. These findings provide a comprehensive understanding of the constitutional guarantees in Jordanian labour law and offer a roadmap for potential reforms to strengthen these protections.
