WORC partners with Uniform Services in organised District Day Events
Workforce Opportunities & Residency Cayman (WORC) recently hosted five (5) district day events in partnership with the uniformed services and Needs Assessment Unit (NAU), which allowed Caymanian job seekers to register with WORC and learn more about career opportunities within the Cayman Islands Coast Guard (CICG), Cayman Islands Fire Service (CIFS), Royal Cayman Islands Police Service (RCIPS) and the Cayman Islands Regiment (CIR).
The WORC District Days were organised to allow Caymanian job seekers in the communities a more convenient way to access and register for WORC services. By going into the communities, WORC Officers can give hands-on help to persons registering, to assist persons who need help finding employment or persons who may want to receive information on training & development opportunities.
When Caymanians register with WORC and sign up as Full-Service Clients, they are assigned an Employment Services Officer (ESO) who works alongside them to guide them throughout the process of finding employment. This includes personalised job search assistance, access to job fairs and networking events, and referrals to training & development opportunities.
Over the five (5) events, WORC saw eighty (80) Caymanians come out to receive services to become more marketable for employment. Many were young persons seeking to improve themselves and learn more about uniform services, while some were newly registered with WORC.
Minister of Border Control, Labour & Culture Hon Dwayne Seymour, CCI, JP. MP stated, "The success of the WORC district days underscores our government's steadfast commitment to improving the lives of all Caymanians. I strongly encourage Caymanian job seekers to register with WORC, not only to receive assistance in finding employment but also to take advantage of the free training opportunities that are available. It’s important to ensure that every Caymanian has the tools and support necessary to thrive in today’s job market and registering with WORC is a crucial step towards securing a prosperous future and contributing positively to the talent development of our people.”
