Kenyan Work permits

Could you kindly give a breakdown of total number of Work Permit Kenyans in hospitality, healthcare, agriculture, and construction? Also, the number of Kenyans who are entitled visa holders in finance and healthcare, and chefs or management.  

As at 16/09/2025 the following numbers of Kenyan workers were recorded as holding work 

permits for employment in the healthcare, agriculture, construction and finance sectors, 

together with those in chef and management positions. 

Where numbers are fewer than five, disclosure control is applied to avoid identification of 

individuals. Numbers fewer than five are represented as ‘<5’. Article 25 of the Freedom of 

Information (Jersey) Law 2011 has been applied.  

(1) Information is absolutely exempt information if it constitutes personal data of which the applicant is the data subject as defined in the Data Protection (Jersey) Law 2018. 

​

(2) Information is absolutely exempt information if – 

(a) it constitutes personal data of which the applicant is not the data subject as defined in 

the Data Protection (Jersey) Law 2018; and 

(b) its supply to a member of the public would contravene any of the data protection 

principles, as defined in that Law. 

3) In determining for the purposes of this Article whether the lawfulness principle in Article 8(1)(a) of the Data Protection (Jersey) Law 2018 would be contravened by the ​disclosure of information, paragraph 5(1) of Schedule 2 to that Law (legitimate 

interests) is to be read as if sub-paragraph (b) (which disapplies the provision where the controller is a public authority) were omitted.
