Jamaican Job Services

The Electronic Labour Exchange is the core of the Labour Market Information System (LMIS) which provides both online and offline services to job seekers and employers. 

This is a free service linking employees with employers across Jamaica.

The service also includes career counselling, résumé writing, interview and job search techniques and the provision of labour market information to satisfy the needs of both job seekers and employers alike. You may access the service online at www.lmis.gov.jm .


Job seekers in Kingston and its environs have access to computers in the Labour Exchange Centre to conduct job searches, post résumés and apply for jobs. Those in other parts of the country can visit any of the Ministry’s parish offices for assistance. Employers who are interested in using the service can post vacancies online or inform the Ministry via telephone. Conference rooms to conduct screening of candidates are also available at the Kingston, Manchester and St. Ann regional offices. Career guidance is also provided in all regional offices through workshops or one-on-one sessions.
