Know the Warning Signs:
• Individuals requesting money to secure or guarantee a work permit.
• Fake job advertisements or recruitment agencies promising employment in the Cayman Islands.
• Claims of special connections or the ability to bypass official immigration procedures.
• Requests for personal information or payments through unverified channels.

Chief Officer of the Ministry of Caymanian Employment and Immigration, Wesley Howell, participated in the Tech Futures Innovation Summit on Tuesday, 6 October 2026, as part of Tech Futures Week 2026.

During a fireside discussion titled “The AI Workforce Shift: Jobs, Skills and What Cayman Does Next,” Chief Officer Howell joined Leonard Lewis to explore how artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the workplace, the skills employers need and how the Cayman Islands can prepare its workforce and businesses for an increasingly AI-driven economy.

Also in attendance were Premier Hon. André Ebanks and Minister Hon. Isaac Rankine, who delivered remarks during the event.

Held from 5–9 October under the theme “The AI Advantage,” Tech Futures Week brought together government, industry leaders, educators and the wider community to explore the opportunities and challenges of AI, with a focus on innovation, workforce development and preparing Caymanians for the jobs of the future.

The initiative was delivered through a partnership between Workforce Opportunities & Residency Cayman (WORC), Enterprise Cayman and Cayman Enterprise City.

Public Reminder: Arrangements of Convenience Regulations

Arrangements of convenience can undermine the immigration system by allowing laws intended to support genuine marriages and civil partnerships to be misused. They can also lead to individuals obtaining residency or citizenship through fraudulent means and put vulnerable persons at risk of exploitation.

The Caymanian Protection (Arrangements of Convenience) Regulations, 2026, which commenced on 1 May 2026, establish procedures for identifying and addressing marriages and civil partnerships entered into primarily to avoid immigration requirements or obtain immigration benefits.

Annual Declarations also play an important role, as information provided through these declarations may help authorities identify and prevent arrangements of convenience.

Minister Signals Proposed Changes to Work Permit Advertising Requirements Announced

Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands – 1 October 2026 – Today in Parliament, Hon. Michael Myles, MP, Minister for Caymanian Employment and Immigration expressed an intention for the Government to make changes to the advertising requirements associated with work permit applications, following feedback from employers, job seekers and other stakeholders.

The Minister contemplates that, under the proposed changes, employers would continue to be required to advertise vacancies on the WORC Jobs Portal for at least 21 days before submitting a work permit application. However, employers would no longer be required to advertise vacancies in a local newspaper.

Minister for Caymanian Employment and Immigration, Hon. Michael Myles, stated: “The objective remains to ensure that Caymanians have meaningful access to employment opportunities, while creating a system that is efficient, transparent and works well for both job seekers and employers. This proposed change is about making the advertising process simpler and more practical, while still ensuring Caymanians have a fair opportunity to see and apply for available jobs.”

Part of the proposal to Caucus and Cabinet is whether to contemplate an introduction of a modest fee for advertisements placed on the WORC Jobs Portal and the revenue generated from this fee would support the operation of the Portal. The Government will also assume publishing a weekly list of consolidated job vacancies in a local newspaper to allow job opportunities to remain available both online and in print. However, these proposed changes are subject to approval of Caucus and Cabinet next week.

Workforce Opportunities & Residency Cayman (WORC) will continue to support job seekers who may need assistance accessing vacancies online, including through in-person support with visits to the districts. The Ministry of Caymanian Employment and Immigration will continue engaging with employers, Caymanian job seekers and other stakeholders as the proposed changes are developed and implemented.
