CMC – The Ministry of Labour has warned of a scam that is inviting persons to participate in its Seasonal Agricultural Workers’ Programme.
According to the Ministry it is not recruiting persons for the programme at this time.
This is in reference to a message that has been circulating on social media, inviting persons to contact a Mr. Simms for opportunities on the programme.
However, the Ministry is warning the public that no one named Simms is working with its Overseas Employment Programme.
It’s urging persons to look out for unscrupulous persons, presenting themselves as employees of the Ministry and attempting to fleece unsuspecting persons of their money.
Members of the public are also advised that there are no costs associated with applying for the Farm Work Programme and “no new recruitment is taking place at this time,” the Ministry says.
It’s encouraging persons who have paid money for a spot on the Programme to report the matter to the police.
