HMP Hull: Length of Service
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what the average length of service is for a prison officer at HMP Hull.
- Answer
-
As at 31st March 2019, the average length of service for a prison officer at HMP Hull was 12.4 years.
The length of service in HMPPS is calculated from most recent hire date. Where staff have transferred in from another Government Department or have transferred in through HMPPS taking over a function, length of service is calculated from entry to HMPPS. Prison Officers Includes Band 3-4 / Prison Officer (includes specialists), Band 4 / Supervising Officer and Band 5 / Custodial Managers.
We want prison officers to stay and progress their careers. We have improved induction processes to ease transition into the job, provide care and support for our staff and offer additional training. These measures are part of the work we are doing directly with Governors to address local issues and ensure experienced staff and new recruits remain in the service.
