Carpentry considered hazardous profession by SSC

AMMAN — The job of carpenter is classified as a “hazardous” profession, Social Security Corporation (SSC) Spokesperson Musa Sbeihi said Wednesday.

He said that the profession is classified as hazardous because carpenters deal with chemicals, flammable material, are exposed to dust and lead, and work in uncomfortable environments.

He said facilities employing carpenters should supply the SSC with a list of the workers’ names.
