repair, where over a third of ex-Gazans elsewhere are employed 77. The same share of people in the three population groups, around one in ten, work in services 78. Compared to other sectors, agriculture is primarily for people with low educational attainment (57% have elementary schooling or below), although they may well reside in households where other members hold higher degrees (30% of agricultural workers reside in households where at least one member has higher education, and another 9% live in households with someone who has attained secondary education). In contrast, amongst those employed within education, health and social services only 7% did not complete at least basic schooling and two in three (67%) have attained a post-secondary degree. Finally, Table 24 effectively shows the disadvantage of non-citizen status, as only 2% of the ex-Gaza labour force, inside and outside Jerash camp alike, work in public administration contrasted with five times as many citizen Palestinian refugees.

While one in five non-ex-Gaza refugees works for the government, only approximately 3% of ex-Gazans do. This is a particular disadvantage to exGazans in Jerash camp. The quarterly labour force surveys (DoS and Fafo, 2015) show that in 2010 to 2014, approximately 40% of the labour force in Jerash governorate worked in the public sector, as compared with a national average of 28%. In Souf camp, where, as noted above, the vast majority are Jordanian citizens, 33% of those working report the government as their employer. A higher share of ex-Gazans from Jerash camp than other ex-Gazans (but a lower share than amongst other Palestinian refugees) work in the education, health and social work ‘Trade’ covers wholesale and retail sale of all kinds of goods. However, the majority work in shops and on market stalls where foodstuffs are the predominant merchandise. In addition to people working with the maintenance and repair of motor vehicles and some employed in the sale of vehicles, a few individuals employed in real estate business is also grouped into this ‘industry’. 78 Main forms of ‘services’ are accommodation and food services (for instance work in restaurants and mobile stalls), communications and information systems as well as finance and insurance. A majority work within food services. 77 ‘Just getting by’ Ex-Gazans in Jerash and other refugee camps in Jordan 69
