No, it's not mandatory!
But life on Aruba is VERY expensive. Aruba has one of the highest levels of women in the workforce and many people work two jobs.
The government provides social benefits to those that are unemployed, but the monthly payments are very low.
Standar of living on Aruba is very high in comparison to the rest of the Caribbean and that takes cash. Unless you are retired or have a bunch of discretionary cash, work is a good option to consider.
