Important Changes to WORC Services

Grand Cayman, 27 May 2024 – In an effort to better service customers, Workforce Opportunities & Residency Cayman (WORC) will be going through a transition period and changes in services will occur.

JobsCayman Portal Goes Offline

Effective 11:59 pm on Wednesday, 29 May, the current JobsCayman portal will no longer be available. This includes payments, job seeker registration, employer registration, posting job ads, and applying for jobs.
 

Customer Care Relocates to Artemis House – 67 Fort Street George Town

Effective, Monday 3 June, the Customer Care services will relocate to Artemis House. Customers will be able to access the same services that were offered at Apollo House West such as:

  • Payments
  • Submission of Applications
  • Passport Endorsement Stamps


Customers can park at the Apollo House West parking lot and follow the signs to Artemis House.  All other WORC services remain at Apollo House West which include the Employment Services and Training & Development Unit for Caymanians seeking employment or training.

 

WORC Online Services & Temporary Payment Arrangements

 As the existing JobsCayman online portal goes offline,  a site offering reduced online services will be available on 3 June. This site is temporary and will allow the final developing and testing of the new WORC Jobs & Online Payment  Services which is anticipated to launch on 18 June 2024.

The temporary site will have the following key functionalities:

  • Employers can continue to post job advertisements on worc.ky, and
  • Job-seekers can still search and apply for jobs on worc.ky.


However, payments must be made in-person. Customers submitting three (3) or more applications are encouraged to utilize the corporate drop bag to reduce wait times. Customer Care Officers will be on hand to review documents and ensure drop off is handled as efficiently as possible.

Passport Endorsement Stamps for Immediate Travel

WORC requests that during this time of transition only persons with immediate travel plans who want to secure a passport endorsement stamp to do so within ten (10) days before travelling. This measure will assist WORC in managing the high demand of this service as the summer approaches and persons travel plans increase. Persons are also reminded that a valid permit license can also be used as a travel document.

WORC appreciates your understanding and cooperation as these changes commence to enhance our service delivery. The office number remains the same at 945-9672, toll free 1-800-534-9672 or email WORC@gov.ky. For further updates on these changes visit worc.ky or follow on Facebook and Instagram.

WORC Hosted Cayman Brac District Day

Grand Cayman, 22 October 2024 - Workforce Opportunities & Residency Cayman (WORC) held its final District Day for the year at the end of September at the Aston Rutty Centre in Cayman Brac. This event was a part of WORC's ongoing initiative to engage with local communities, providing vital information about its programmes and services. 
Hosting District Days have become a key feature of WORC’s outreach efforts, allowing individuals direct access to valuable resources such as the new Jobs & Online Payment Services portal, a crucial tool for job seekers and employers.
The event was in collaboration with the Cayman Islands Customs and Border Control Service (CBC), the Cayman Islands Fire Service (CIFS), the Cayman Islands Regiment (CIR), and the Royal Cayman Islands Police Service (RCIPS). This multi-agency approach aimed to provide a well-rounded experience, with representatives from each service available to discuss their respective recruitment, training opportunities, and other services.
Approximately twenty four (24) persons attended with the main focus of seeking employment, while others re-activated their job portal account and others registered with WORC for the first time.
Caymanian job seekers are encouraged to register with WORC to access various learning and training programmes as well as employment opportunities.
WORC’s Cayman Brac Manager of Permits, Residency & Status said, “We encourage Cayman Brac job seekers to register with WORC to take the first step in receiving valuable learning opportunities and getting assistance in finding employment. Together, we can unlock your potential and pave the way to a successful career be that in the uniformed services, or another industry.”
Caymanians needing assistance in registering on the job portal are asked to contact Customer Care at 945-9672 or email WORCServices@gov.ky with any questions.
