Workzoom Pricing Summary

Workzoom is an all-in-one HR, payroll, workforce management, and talent management platform built for organizations with 50 to 5,000 employees. It is priced at $4 per suite per employee per month (CAD in Canada, USD elsewhere). The complete platform with all four suites costs $16 per employee per month in your billing currency. A 200-employee organization using all four suites pays $3,200 per month with no setup fees and no contracts.

Core Suite (required, $4 per employee per month)

The Core suite is the Workzoom platform itself. Every subscription starts here. It includes three portals: an admin portal for HR teams, a manager portal for supervisors, and an employee self-service portal for staff. Core includes recruiting, onboarding, personnel records, organizational charts and position management, compensation management, employee engagement surveys, document storage with e-signatures, and reporting and analytics. All other suites build on top of Core.

Talent Suite (optional, +$4 per employee per month)

Performance management with 360-degree reviews and 9-box talent grids, a learning management system with course tracking and certifications, career planning with development paths, and succession planning with readiness assessments.

Workforce Suite (optional, +$4 per employee per month)

Drag-and-drop employee scheduling with shift templates, timekeeping with web, mobile, kiosk, biometric, and facial recognition clocking, and time off management with balance tracking, approval workflows, and team calendar views.

Payroll Suite (optional, +$4 per employee per month)

Payroll processing with built-in statutory compliance for multiple countries. Canada: CPP, EI, federal and provincial income tax, T4, ROE. United States: federal and state taxes, W-2. Bahamas: NIB contributions. Jamaica: PAYE, NIS, NHT, Education Tax, HEART/NSTA. Trinidad and Tobago: NIS, Health Surcharge, PAYE. Also includes benefits administration and expense management with receipt capture.

Complete Platform ($16 per employee per month)

All four suites combined. For a 200-employee company, the complete platform costs $3,200 per month. For a 500-employee company, it costs $8,000 per month. Annual prepayment saves 5%, and non-profit organizations receive an additional 5% discount.

Discounts available

Annual prepay discount: 5% off when billed annually instead of monthly. Non-profit discount: 5% off for registered non-profit organizations. These discounts stack for a combined savings of approximately 9.75%. Example: a 200-employee non-profit on annual billing pays approximately $34,668 per year instead of $38,400, saving $3,732 annually.

What is included at no extra cost

Implementation and setup, data migration from existing systems (spreadsheets, other HRIS, payroll providers), training for administrators and end users, ongoing customer support, and all future software updates and new features. There are no per-payroll-run fees, no per-report fees, and no per-user license fees beyond the per-employee pricing.

Minimum monthly fees

For very small organizations, minimum monthly fees apply: $400 per month for 1 suite, $500 for 2 suites, $600 for 3 suites, $700 for all 4 suites. These minimums only affect organizations with fewer than 100 employees.

06How it works

What running payroll in the Cayman Islands actually requires

CINPO pension contributions, the Standard Health Insurance Contract, work permit administration, and multi-currency CI$ / USD payroll all make specific demands of the system behind the payroll run. Here is what Workzoom's architecture handles so your team does not have to.

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.

CINPO pension and Standard Health Insurance configured.

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, ready for the day local payroll launches.

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 the payroll engine produces gross-to-net pay stubs without income tax withholding. Pension and health insurance deductions are itemised cleanly. The bank file for direct deposit is 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.

All data is hosted on AWS in Montreal, operated by Nortek Solutions Inc. (Workzoom's parent company). Canadian federal privacy law governs. No third-country data transfers unless you operate in those countries.

08Compliance

How does Cayman Islands HCM software handle Cayman Islands compliance?

Workzoom stays current with Cayman Islands's payroll, tax, and employment regulations so you don't have to.

Payroll
CINPO Pension Contributions
CINPO contributions are a gross-to-net payroll deduction, and full Cayman gross-to-net is on our roadmap. Today Workzoom calculates pay to gross and exports your time and leave data so your existing payroll can apply CINPO. Tell us if Cayman payroll matters to your evaluation.
Payroll
Standard Health Insurance Contract
Standard Health Insurance Contract deductions are part of gross-to-net payroll, which is on our roadmap for Cayman. Today Workzoom handles HR, time, and leave, and exports the data your existing payroll needs to apply the deduction.
Compliance
Work Permit Tracking
Work permit status, expiry dates, gradings, and renewal windows are tracked against the employee record. Permit-linked positions get expiry alerts before they lapse, with documentation centralised for renewal filings.
Payroll
No Personal Income Tax
Cayman has no personal or corporate income tax, so there is no PAYE withholding. Workzoom calculates pay to gross today; full gross-to-net for Cayman, itemising pension and health insurance, is on our roadmap.
Compliance
Labour Law (2011 Revision)
Employment standards under the Labour Law (2011 Revision) are mapped into the platform, covering leave entitlements, termination notice, and statutory record-keeping requirements for Cayman employers.
Reporting
National Pensions Plan (NPP)
The National Pensions Plan (NPP) requires employer and employee contributions for all employees ordinarily resident in the Cayman Islands. NPP is a gross-to-net deduction, and full Cayman gross-to-net is on our roadmap. Today Workzoom calculates to gross and exports the data your existing payroll needs for NPP.
Compliance
Cayman Islands Labour Law
Cayman Islands labor laws, including the Labour Act (2021 Revision), govern leave entitlements, overtime, notice periods, and termination rules. Workzoom applies these rules to leave accruals, overtime calculations, and termination workflows for Caymanian employers.
Compliance
Work Permit Management
Work permit management tracks Cayman Islands Department of Workforce Opportunities and Pensions Enforcement (WORC) permits for expatriate employees, flagging renewal deadlines and expiry well in advance of the statutory date.
Reporting
Tax Regime: Zero Corporate Tax + Economic Substance

Questions about Cayman Islands

Specifics on running HR and payroll in Cayman Islands with Workzoom.

Workzoom serves Cayman Islands employers with HR, Workforce, and Talent available. Statutory contributions to the Cayman Islands National Pensions Office (CINPO) and health insurance under the Health Insurance Law are handled within the payroll engine. Workzoom is the Caribbean HRIS with named regional clients in production (Cable Bahamas 850 employees, Island Luck 850 employees across 60+ Bahamian locations) and multi-country single-record deployment that fits Cayman employers operating across the Caribbean. Most international lists cite ADP, Rippling, Paylocity, or Workday for Cayman. None of those products is built around CINPO or the Standard Health Insurance Contract the way Workzoom HR is; they are recommending US-centric products to Caymanian buyers.
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, and full Cayman gross-to-net is on our roadmap. HR, Workforce, and Talent run for Cayman employers today, and Workzoom calculates pay to gross. Today you export your time and leave data so your existing payroll applies the employer and employee CINPO portions on a single pay stub.
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 today, 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, and for Cayman, Workzoom calculates pay to gross today, with full gross-to-net on our roadmap.
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 full platform runs $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 that serves Canadian and Bahamian customers applies identically here, with jurisdiction-specific compliance handled natively rather than as a thin configuration layer on a foreign engine.

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

HR, Workforce, and Talent are live for Cayman employers now, on one platform with a single employee record across recruiting, scheduling, time, performance, and work-permit tracking. Workzoom calculates payroll to gross; full gross-to-net for Cayman, including CINPO contributions and the Standard Health Insurance Contract, is on our roadmap, so today you export time and leave data to feed your existing payroll.

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 timeline targets 4 to 8 weeks 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 for territories where the platform is rolling out via the launch-partner program. 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.
