Are and were sentences?
Since ‘are’ is in the present tense, it must be used to denote an action that is being done in the present. Its counterpart, ‘were’, is used when the subject of the sentence is plural, and the action or condition that is expressed has already been completed or the event happened in the past.
Where is had used?
The past perfect form of have is had had (had + past participle form of have). The past perfect tense is used when we are talking about the past and want to refer back to an earlier past time. She felt marvelous after she had had a good night’s sleep. They dismissed him before he had had a chance to apologize.
Have worked or had worked?

Simple past ‘worked’ is the natural choice, though you can also say ‘had worked’. Also, the present perfect is not just a past action before a present one: it’s one where the results of the past action continue to be relevant in the present.
Was worked is correct?
