Correctional service officer:

Correctional service officers ensure the safe custody of prisoners as commanded by a court of law from the date of imprisonment until such a person is released. The correctional officer is concerned with the safe custody of the prisoners in his care, the training and treatment of prisoners during their imprisonment, preparation of the prisoners for their release and integration into the community and relevant administrative work. They need to conduct head counts to ensure that each prisoner is present, monitor the conduct of prisoners in their housing unit, or during work or recreational activities, according to established policies.
