- challenges:
- Not observed
- success:
- This evaluation learnt that the supervisors tend to distribute labour tasks between women and men dividing them in teams of female and the teams of male workers. However this evaluation observed that women and men work side by side voluntarily if they have to perform the same tasks. Some times more experienced male workers teach women how to perform certain tasks and this is not objected by women
- context:
- The project “The Decent Work in Jordan’s Floriculture Sector project” aimed to increase the employability of women through the technical training in floriculture sector and OSH. The majority workers in floriculture farms currently are men. Hence Jordan has the lowest participation rate of women in the labor force (14%) it could be assumed that women may not consider working side by side with men, given also the cultural sensitivity of such issues in Jordan
- description:
- Women in Jordan do not mind working with men at the same work place, provided that they have gender-sensitive working environment.
- administrative_issues:
- To the Programme Department – to continue collect sex/disaggregated data to manage gender balance and gender equality at work
