Description

Most prisoners in the UK are required to work. This text aims to present information on this area in the rehabilitative work of prisons. It examines: the nature of training received by prisoners; the actual work they undertake; how this relates to the world or work outside; and the role it plays in helping to secure employment on release. The author employs a balance of qualitative and quantitative data, including accounts from UK prisons, gathered during field research.
