4,205 Government and 6,470 Private Sector Beneficiaries of Hafiz Program The Hafiz program has empowered 4,205 beneficiaries in the government sector to enhance digital identity activation by the end of 2024, while the private sector accounted for 6,470 participants utilizing the program's resources through the end of 2023. اضافة اعلان Launched in August 2021 by the Ministry of Digital Economy and Entrepreneurship, "Hafiz" was designed to inject dynamism into the digital and entrepreneurial sectors by offering six-month temporary employment opportunities. The program has now successfully completed its lifecycle, achieving its core goals. To stimulate uptake, the ministry subsidized 50% of monthly wages capped at JOD200 per trainee and covered social security contributions at a preferential 5.25%, which include protections for occupational injuries, maternity, unemployment, disability, and death. In a strategic policy intervention, the Cabinet approved a five-year installment plan enabling companies benefiting from "Hafiz" to defer repayment of accumulated social security dues and late fees retroactive to 2023. Haitham Al-Rawajbeh, telecom and IT sector representative at the Jordan Chamber of Commerce, described the decision as a constructive step balancing the need to protect social security rights with sustaining government employment incentives.

Wa'ed Al-Hawamdeh, Regional Director of Concentrix, a global leader in outsourcing and customer experience, highlighted the Cabinet's decision as a pivotal enabler of a more attractive investment climate and private sector growth, contributing meaningfully to the GDP. He noted that the move aligns with the Kingdom's economic modernization vision, facilitating job creation and boosting the competitiveness of local tech firms in regional and global markets. Concentrix itself has created over 3,000 sustainable jobs, exemplifying effective public-private collaboration. The Hafiz program comprises two primary tracks: wage support for graduates employed in private sector companies and a digital transformation stream that deploys graduates to advance e-government platforms and digital identity services.

(Video) Singer Hafiz Suip Admits His Anger Problems Caused His Marriage To Fail?
Earlier this year, singer Hafiz Suip revealed he had divorced his wife, Nureffy Jasreel Abdullah, after nearly 10 years of marriage. While the star never detailed the split, he recently hinted that his anger problems had a role in causing it. Earlier this week, the singer shared a cryptic post on Instagram, hinting at something on 11th January 2026, which many fans believe is a new concert. While Hafiz hasn't announced what is happening on the mentioned date, he has uploaded a series of interviews titled 'Di Sebalik Hafiz (Behind Hafiz)' to count down to the announcement. The interview included questions about his personal life and his views on topics like love and family. In the second episode of the interview series, the singer talked about his biggest regret. Tearing up, Hafiz said that his biggest regret was rage, revealing that his uncontrollable anger is one of the reasons for his recent personal issues. He continued, 'Rage is not the solution to your problems. You have to control that', hinting that he has previously let his anger overcome his emotions, which may have led to his marriage failing. Hafiz and Nureffy tied the knot in 2016, but announced their decision to split in January 2025. The pair said the reason for the divorce was irreconcilable differences, but denied rumours of a third person. After his divorce, the 35-year-old moved back to his hometown of Kuching, while his ex-wife gained full custody of their two children. In the same video, Hafiz revealed his current relationship with his children. The singer couldn't hide his sadness when mentioning his kids, revealing that he rarely communicates with them now that they live separately. While Hafiz admits to missing his children, he also hinted that he feels guilty about contacting them given their strained relationship. The star also acknowledged that his ex-wife is better suited to take care of the children, likely due to his anger issues. Fans have since extended support for the singer, hoping he'll get out of his current slump. Some also expressed anticipation for his announcement, saying they look forward to seeing Hafiz back on stage. We also wish all the best for Hafiz, and we can't wait to see him bounce back to the star he once was. In the meantime, check out Hafiz's interview below: Sources: Instagram (1)(2), BeautifulNara

Cabinet Approves Debt Installment Plan for 'Hafiz' Program Companies - Jordan News
The Council of Ministers, in a session held on Wednesday and chaired by Prime Minister Dr. Jaafar Hassan, approved new measures to support economic activities and ease their financial burdens. Among these was a decision to allow companies benefiting from the "Hafiz" program—a temporary employment support initiative in the digital and entrepreneurial sectors—to pay off their debts in installments. اضافة اعلان This includes retroactive differences in monthly social security contributions and late payment penalties from 2023, which can now be paid over a period of five years in 60 monthly installments, starting from the month following the signing of an installment agreement with the Social Security Corporation. The decision allows the continued implementation of the "Hafiz" program, under which the government has already covered JD 1.9 million in outstanding contributions owed to the Social Security Corporation on behalf of program employees. This aims to protect the financial entitlements of the Social Security Fund while ensuring the program's sustainability. The program's continuation paves the way for the employment of approximately 600 young men and women in the information technology sector, particularly in integrated government service centers and in private companies in need of IT support or technicians. These companies can hire staff for a period of 6 to 12 months, during which the Ministry of Digital Economy and Entrepreneurship will cover up to 50% of the new employee's monthly salary, whether in the public or private sector. The "Hafiz" program aligns with the goals of the Economic Modernization Vision, which seeks to digitize government services, enhance digital skills, improve the business environment, and foster conditions conducive to private sector growth.
