The Department of Business, Economic Development and Tourism (DBEDT) and the Department of Labor and Industrial Relations (DLIR) announced the release of a new website that consolidates programs for residents seeking remote work opportunities and employers looking to hire Hawaiʻi residents for remote work.

The new website, invest.hawaii.gov/remote external link, provides residents with direct links to partners of the Hawaiʻi Remote Work Pilot Project and the local American Job Center (AJC). Registering on this site sends an automated message that notifies the AJC that Hawaiʻi residents are interested in remote work opportunities in their county of residence.

Current remote work partners providing opportunities for Hawaiʻi’s residents include:

  • Instant Teams – Remote Ready Hawaii Project, building a team of locally based workers who are qualified residents, to address remote customer service needs through paid training, internship and placement on a team.
  • Nexrep – Selecting workers from Hawaiʻi to provide customer service solutions.

The website also provides businesses located outside of Hawaiʻi with labor law information for hiring or employing a remote Hawaiʻi workforce; including Unemployment Insurance, Prepaid Healthcare, Temporary Disability Insurance and Workers Compensation. Residents will also have access to a new partnership with NexRep.  The intention of including Nexrep is to employ a high quality, high performing virtual workforce.
