The platform
Four suites built for Caymanian employers.

Inside the platform
What Caymanian employers run on Workzoom.
Employee self-service, admin dashboards, timesheets, and reports. One login covers the entire team, on any device.
Admin Dashboard
Headcount, turnover, and workforce trends update in real time. Your HR team sees the entire Caymanian operation on one screen, with every location rolled up automatically.
Organization Chart
The chart maps positions, not people. When someone leaves, the role stays in place along with the certifications and compliance requirements attached to it. Reorganizations stop being chaos.
Timekeeping
Employees clock in from the web, their phone, or a biometric device. Hours flow straight into payroll with overtime already calculated, so the pay run runs without surprises.
Leave Management
Requests come in from a phone, managers approve in a tap, and balances update everywhere at once. By the time payroll opens, accruals and deductions are already reconciled.
Payroll Financial Reports
Pay run summaries, deduction breakdowns, and remittance totals live in one report. Every line ties back to a calculation, and every calculation ties back to a record. Built for the way finance teams actually audit.
Benefits Administration
Enrollment, coverage, and plan management share the same employee record that runs payroll. The moment someone enrolls, deductions are already wired in. No duplicate entry, nothing to reconcile later.

Live walkthrough
See Workzoom in 30 minutes.
Real product, real questions, no slides. Starts at $4 per employee per month, CAD or USD, with $0 setup fees.
Implementation
Cayman Islands go-lives. Most in four to twelve weeks.
Most teams go live in four to twelve weeks. Larger or more complex rollouts, think 500-plus employees, multiple entities or pay groups, or a full payroll migration, typically run twelve to thirty-six weeks. HR, Workforce, and Talent go live first. If payroll is part of your evaluation, contact us about your timelines.
Discovery and kickoff
We map your HR, time, and workforce workflows, import employees, and set up your structure, roles, and policies. Clean, exportable data here is the single biggest accelerator.
Configure
Leave policies, schedules, approvals, and compliance alerts built into your tenant. We verify the setup with your team.
Validate
Your team works in the live tenant against real scenarios. Gaps fixed before go-live, not after.
Go live
HR, Workforce, and Talent live on Workzoom. Employee self-service opens. For payroll, contact us about your timelines.
Do
- Define your org structure clearly, the clearer the faster
- Hand over a clean Excel export of all employee records
- Decide how you want your workflows to look
- Order your time clocks at kickoff so they ship in time
- Attend the working sessions you schedule
- Use Workzoom between sessions, not only in meetings
Don't
- Turnover on your project team mid-implementation
- Key people on vacation during setup
- Employee data stuck in a legacy system or on paper
- Leaving your org structure or workflows undefined
Between sessions, your implementation specialist builds your setup from what each meeting decides, so the more your team defines up front, the faster you go live.
How it works
What Cayman Islands payroll demands, and how the engine is built for it
CINPO pension contributions, the Standard Health Insurance Contract, work permit administration, and multi-currency CI$ / USD payroll each make specific demands of a payroll system. The payroll engine runs full gross-to-net in the Bahamas, Canada, and the United States. If payroll and your timelines are part of your evaluation, contact us. We can show you how it works, and going live for the Cayman Islands means adding your local statutory rates and bank connections.
Single database. No sync required.
HR, Workforce, Payroll, and Talent share one employee record. When a work permit status changes in HR, payroll reads it immediately. No sync job between modules, no export to a separate payroll system, no reconciliation step between timekeeping and pay.
Built to handle CINPO pension and Standard Health Insurance.
Workzoom's payroll engine is built to handle Cayman Islands National Pensions Office contributions and the Standard Health Insurance Contract, with employer and employee portions in one engine and rate or ceiling changes propagating to every affected employee in a single update. Contact us about Cayman Islands payroll and your timelines.
Work permits tracked on the employee record.
Permit status, grading, expiry date, and renewal documentation attach directly to the employee profile. Alerts fire ahead of expiry. The team filing renewals reads from the same data the payroll team uses. No parallel permit spreadsheet.
No personal income tax, clean pay stubs.
Cayman has no PAYE, so pay stubs run gross-to-net without income tax withholding, with pension and health insurance deductions itemised cleanly and direct-deposit bank files generated in CI$ or USD per pay run.
Multi-currency for the CI$ / USD reality.
The Cayman Islands dollar is pegged at CI$1 = US$1.20. Workzoom handles multi-currency payroll on one platform, with the peg applied where relevant. Groups running Cayman alongside the Bahamas, Canada, or the United States consolidate onto one system.
Data hosted in Canada, governed by Canadian law.
By default your data is hosted on AWS in Montreal, operated by Nortek Solutions Inc. (Workzoom's parent company), and Canadian federal privacy law governs. United States hosting is available if you prefer it. There are no third-country data transfers unless you operate in those countries.

FAQ
Questions about Cayman Islands
Specifics on running HR and payroll in Cayman Islands with Workzoom.
Workzoom is HR, Workforce, and Talent software for the Cayman Islands: employee records, recruiting, onboarding, scheduling, time and attendance, leave, performance, and learning on one record, with work-permit tracking built in. Workzoom is a Caribbean HRIS with named clients running live in the Bahamas (Cable Bahamas 850 employees, Island Luck across 60+ Bahamian locations) and multi-country single-record reporting that fits Cayman groups operating across the region. Contact us about Cayman Islands payroll and your timelines. Most international lists cite ADP, Rippling, Paylocity, or Workday for Cayman, products designed around US payroll rather than the Cayman statutory framework.
CINPO pension contributions, overseen by the Cayman Department of Labour and Pensions (which administers the National Pensions Office), are a gross-to-net payroll deduction. Workzoom is HR, Workforce, and Talent software: employee records, scheduling, time, leave, performance, and work-permit tracking on one record. Contact us about Cayman Islands payroll and your timelines.
Yes. Workzoom tracks WORC work permit status, grading, and expiry dates against every employee record, with alerts that fire ahead of permit expiry so renewals are filed on time. Permit documentation attaches to the employee profile, and the system distinguishes Caymanian status from work-permit-holder status for reporting. The work permit data sits in the same record as pension, health insurance, and pay history, so the team running renewals reads from the same source the payroll team uses.
The Standard Health Insurance Contract is built to be handled alongside the CINPO pension deduction, with employer and employee portions itemised on one pay stub. Built to be handled alongside the CINPO pension deduction, health insurance contributions itemise on one pay stub, so the totals reported under the Health Insurance Commission framework match what employees see.
Cayman has no personal or corporate income tax, so the payroll engine is built to handle gross-to-net pay without PAYE withholding. CINPO pension and Standard Health Insurance Contract deductions are calculated and itemised, and a direct-deposit bank file is generated in Cayman Islands dollars. The absence of income tax simplifies withholding, but pension, health, and work-permit administration are still complex enough that one unified system is materially easier than spreadsheets.
Yes. HR, Workforce, and Talent run on one platform, with a single employee record carrying positions across entities and reporting that can be filtered by entity or rolled up across the whole group. Groups already running live payroll in the Bahamas, Canada, or the United States manage those on the same platform. For Cayman, HR, Workforce, and Talent run today. Contact us about Cayman Islands payroll and your timelines.
Workzoom is $4 USD per employee per month per suite, with no setup fees and no contracts. The HR, Workforce, and Talent suites are each $4 per employee per month, and the three available suites together run $12 per employee per month. Implementation support, data migration, and administrator training are included at no extra cost, and billing is month to month. Pricing is the same for Cayman employers of every size. See Cayman Islands HCM software pricing.
There is no contract and no setup fee. Workzoom is billed month to month at $4 USD per employee per month per suite, and you can change suites or employee counts as your organisation changes. Implementation support, data migration from your existing HR or payroll system, and administrator training are included in that price. There is no separate onboarding charge, and no long-term commitment is required to start running HR for a Cayman Islands business.
Deep dive
More about Cayman Islands HR and payroll.
01
Caymanian HR and payroll on Workzoom
The Cayman Islands is one of the largest international financial centres in the world, with a workforce concentrated in financial services, hospitality, professional services, and public sector. HR and payroll requirements reflect the operational maturity of Cayman employers, the contributory framework that applies under the Cayman Islands National Pensions Office and Health Insurance Commission, and the distinctive work permit regime that shapes most non-Caymanian employment.
Workzoom supports the Cayman Islands with HR, Workforce, and Talent. The architectural depth behind the live Canadian and Bahamian deployments applies identically here, with work-permit and leave rules handled natively rather than as a thin configuration layer on a foreign engine. Contact us about Cayman Islands payroll and your timelines.
02
Work permits as a first-class data type
Most non-Caymanian employees in the Cayman Islands hold a work permit, and the permit regime is one of the more heavily regulated employment frameworks in the Caribbean. Permit grading, expiry, renewal windows, and the documentation behind each renewal sit at the centre of operations for any Cayman employer with a meaningful non-Caymanian workforce.
Workzoom treats work permits as part of the employee record rather than a side process. The same record that drives pension contributions and pay carries permit status, grading, and expiry dates, with alerts that fire ahead of renewal deadlines. Permit-linked positions show their status on the same dashboard HR uses for everything else.
03
What runs in Cayman today
Workzoom runs HR, Workforce, and Talent on one platform, with a single employee record across recruiting, scheduling, time, performance, and work-permit tracking. Contact us about Cayman Islands payroll and your timelines.
Groups that run Cayman alongside the Bahamas, Canada, or the United States consolidate onto a single platform rather than three. The architecture handles the cross-currency reporting cleanly, and the pricing model, $4 per suite per employee per month, applies identically across every market.
04
Implementation and ongoing support
Implementation is sprint-based and client-paced for most mid-market Cayman organisations. The Caribbean implementation methodology built up from Bahamian customers like Cable Bahamas, Island Luck, and AML Foods informs the playbook. Phased rollout starting with the highest-friction modules ensures quick wins build credibility for the broader transformation.
Ongoing support runs through the same channels that serve North American customers. The Cayman customer gets the full Workzoom support experience rather than a regional variant. The unified support model matches the unified platform architecture.
