Enable Correctional Personnel to Operate More Efficiently and Safely

The correctional workforce includes a diverse range of personnel who work in jails, prisons, and other correctional facilities to manage offenders and defendants. They are responsible for enforcing rules, helping people re-enter society, and ultimately keeping the public safe. 

 

Undoubtedly, the profession by its very nature, presents challenges to its workforce physically and mentally. Insufficient staffing, limited budgets, and inmate overcrowding combined with staff recruitment and retention, training and agency succession planning take a heavy toll on the correctional workforce and administrators alike.  

 

Despite these concerns, correctional leaders must run secure facilities that keep the incarcerated and their own workforce safe while reducing recidivism. Needless to say, the task is complex. This is where technology adds significant value and drives efficiencies.

What Can Correctional Leaders Do to Keep Their Facilities Operating Efficiently?
