Abstract
This study dealt with the worker’s assault on the employer by beating or humiliation according to the Jordanian Law. The study of the worker’s assault on the employer by beating or humiliation is a very accurate and difficult matter, as determining the form of assault by the worker controls many important legal influences. When is the act of beating or humiliation achieved that allows the employer to legitimately dismiss the worker? Does the employer own if he committed the act of beating and humiliation without investigation. This study dealt with the most prominent cases in which the worker assaulted by beating or humiliating the employer or any other person during work, leading to the worker’s legitimate dismissal. Ultimately, this study found that defamation and slander must be added to the Jordanian Labor Law in order to make changes. To the pertinent article’s text. In order to ensure the worker’s safety, we hope that the Jordanian lawmaker makes it clear that the worker cannot be fired in the event of an assault until he has undergone an investigation by an unbiased committee.
