Rimara Pak Tops National List for Disability Inclusion in Jordan Daily Report

On December 4th, 2025, Jordan Daily reported on a historic announcement by the Higher Council for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (HCD). Marking the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, the HCD released its first national list identifying institutions that demonstrated the strongest commitment to inclusion and service quality. This classification was based on quantitative monitoring, field visits, and institutional partnerships conducted throughout the year. The report placed Rimara Pak for Packaging at the forefront of the private sector, leading with a 20% employment rate for persons with disabilities. This achievement positioned the company ahead of other prominent entities, including factories in Irbid, pharmaceutical companies, and major hotels. Within the employment category, the list highlighted Rimara Pak for achieving decent employment standards, even as it continues to work toward full workplace accessibility improvements. In the broader national context, the HCD led government institutions with an employment rate of 28.9%, followed by the Civil Service Bureau and the Ministry of Higher Education. The report also acknowledged the role of international partners, such as GIZ and the World Bank, in fostering strong cooperation for these inclusion standards. The Ministry of Labor was also noted for increasing wage contributions for employees with disabilities under the National Employment Program. This recognition from the HCD and Jordan Daily underscores Rimara Pak's role as a national leader in disability-inclusive employment. By maintaining a workforce where one in five employees is a person with a disability, Rimara Pak serves as a model for how the private sector can exceed national employment quotas and contribute to a more inclusive Jordanian economy.
