Occupational disease (indirect work injury) in Jordanian legislation

Abstract

This study aimed to try to shed light on occupational disease as an indirect work injury in light of the provisions of Jordanian legislation. The two researchers worked to address the issue by explaining what occupational disease (indirect work injuries) is in terms of its definition and what distinguishes it from the rest of the work injuries that the worker is exposed to in the first topic. As for the second topic, it dealt with defining the methods used in Jordanian legislation to prove occupational disease, and the conditions that must be met in order to verify occupational disease and consider it an indirect work injury. The two researchers concluded with several conclusions and recommendations that this study concluded.
