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 Introduces Official Law Enforcement Uniforms

Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands, 5 February 2025 – Workforce Opportunities and Residency Cayman (WORC) has introduced new official uniforms in order to improve officer identification and reinforce its status as a recognised law enforcement department.
The new uniforms establish a clear rank structure and strive to enhance transparency as well as strengthen community relations. Senior Compliance Officers, Compliance Officers, and Assistant Compliance Officers will wear black uniforms, whereas Managers and Senior Managers will wear white uniforms.
While operational gear remains vital for certain tasks, the official uniforms ensure a professional and authoritative presence. The uniforms also help differentiate officers from administrative personnel, ensuring that those tasked with enforcement and compliance are immediately identifiable. 
Director Jeremy Scott highlighted the significance of this transition saying, "In our six years of development, we have made significant strides in establishing ourselves as a credible and effective law enforcement agency. One vital component of this progress is now the uniform we wear which symbolises our authority, integrity, and dedication to upholding the law. Standardised attire also allows the public to easily recognise WORC officers, ensuring greater visibility and identification enhancing the effectiveness and perception of our law enforcement team within the community.”
