Casual Correctional Officer - Moree Courts (V2)

NSW Department of Communities and Justice – Moree NSW

Officers contribute to community safety and assist offenders in finding paths for improvement in their lives. They supervise inmates in correctional facilities, including prisons and court cells throughout Current South Wales.

They are required to interact with inmates and ensure the safety and security of the facility by undertaking searches, monitoring behaviours, and communicating effectively.

What will you do?

Correctional Officers work within a supportive team environment where no two shifts are the same. Some of the vital tasks you can expect to perform include:

- Carrying out daily tasks and duties following legislation, CSNSW and DCJ policies and procedures to ensure the safety, well-being, security, and rehabilitation of inmates.
- Perform daily accountability routines including muster, head checks, ongoing observation of offenders.
- Conduct searches and other detection activities to find and remove contraband from the facility or court complex, and to monitor inmates/offenders, boosting security and safety for everyone.
- Manage inmates' requests for services or escalate them on if needed.
- Supervise offender activities in their designated work, living, or approved zones, making sure everything runs in accordance with the principles of fairness, equity and productive safe practice.
