SC Works Centers
SC Works Centers include re-employment services for jobseekers, partner services, business services and resource rooms for use when filing for unemployment benefits or searching for work online.
SC Works centers are operated by a local Council of Governments. Visit their website here: https://www.scworkscatawba.com/
The Catawba area provides services through all of its centers, allowing members of the public to physically visit in-person or by calling a center near them.
SC Works services can also be found online and, as always, these online services are available 24/7:
The Claimant Self Service Portal where individuals can create an account and file for Unemployment Insurance Benefits.
The SC Works Online Services (SCWOS) site where jobseekers can upload a resume as well as search for work and businesses can post jobs and look for employees.
