The employment contract is considered one of the most important contracts in terms of economic and social circumstances.

The stability of this contract means to to provide reassurance and stability to the worker and his family, and the stability of society and provide a decent life for its members.

The employer may change due to the sale of the project or company or due to the merger of company or any other reason.

The Jordanian legislator deals with this case in article 16 of the Jordanian labor law which keeps the workers' rights and the survival of their contracts and the commitment of the new employer regarding their rights prior to the change.

This research deals with the concept of the new employer and situations in which the employer will be changed, the commitment of the new employer and the basis and the terms of this commitment.

We recommended several amendments to article 16 of Jordan labor Law in order to achieve the purpose for which it was formulate for it.
