Abstract
AbstractUsing micro‐data from the Social Security Corporation (SSC), we analyse the dynamics of social security coverage in the Jordanian labour force. We characterise patterns of contribution densities and transition rates and fit survival models for transitions. We also simulate pension rights. We compare patterns in the Jordanian SSC and in social security programmes in three Latin American countries for which a similar analysis has been conducted. We find comparatively low contribution densities and transition rates in Jordan, which is consistent with low coverage and low turnover rates. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
