Occupational Wage Survey 2017

The Economics and Statistics Office (ESO) in conjunction with the Ministry of Human Resources, Immigration and Community Affairs (HICA) is conducting the Occupational Wage Survey 2017.

This Survey will be used primarily in:

• developing a comprehensive employment and compensation database for reviewing employee compensation and benefits in the context of the Minimum Wage policy implementation;

• establishing the mix of occupation by immigration status as employed in the various industries;

• estimating the cost of labour in the Cayman Islands by occupation and industry; and

• analyzing employee productivity by industry or sub-industries.

The database can also be used by private and public sector employers and employees in reviewing compensation in their respective industries.  

The OWS is confidential. No individual returns will be provided to parties outside the ESO, in accordance with Section 8 of the Statistics Law. Only aggregated data will be given to HICA and other interested organizations.

The 2017 Survey should be completed on or before December 29, 2017 using any of the following options

• Manually, by completing the attached Forms A and B in accordance with the User Guide;

• Electronically, by downloading and filling-up the Excel worksheets in www.eso.ky; or
