No. It's different than your account un/pw. You should have workers listed somewhere on your account page (I've never used wemineltc.com, however). If there's nothing listed, you may have to create a worker, which should be somewhere on the account page, too.

For wemineltc.com, they use this format:
-u workername.1 -p workerpw

Hope it helps!
