Fawaz Al-Maaytah, announced.
He told a meeting held Monday at the Jordan Chamber of industry that the Preventive Security Unit will have the key security task, and that liaison officers had been assigned in various industrial complexes in the Kingdom.
During the meeting with heads of industrial chambers, industrial sector representatives and security officials, Maaytah said that the unit had the task of preserving investment as a societal responsibility due to its contribution to community building through recruitment.
Deputy chairman of the Jordan Chamber of Industry, Mohammed Rifai, said that the protection of factories means preserving national economic security, as the industrial sector is concerned with the employment of youth.
