The Philippine Ambassador to Jordan Julius Torres said that the 15,000 Filipino household workers in Jordan can now return to work due the two-month freeze on the deployment in the Kingdom.
The deployment of Filipino household workers in Jordan was freeze due to reports of abuse, including non-payment of wages, maltreatment and rape. Which Jordan denies saying that the problem is with their residency.
