    Mission Statement

    The mission of the South Carolina Department of Employment and Workforce is to provide quality, customer-driven workforce services that promote financial stability and economic growth.

    The South Carolina Department of Employment and Workforce is responsible for paying unemployment insurance benefits, collecting unemployment taxes, finding jobs for people, finding employees for companies, and collecting and disseminating state/federal employment statistics. While these functions have not changed significantly over the past decade, customer needs and service delivery methods have. As the leading workforce development and labor exchange agency in the State, DEW continually adapts to the demands of new technology and the global economy. Our main goal is to match job seekers with employers quickly, efficiently, and effectively, and we offer a variety of services to assist both groups. The thrust of our new focus can be summarized in two words: Customer Satisfaction. We believe in customer service and effective results.

    “The South Carolina Department of Employment and Workforce is an Equal Employment Opportunity employer.”
