answer text <p>All prisoners in normal accommodation have 24-hour access to sanitation. This is achieved in a number of ways across the prison estate. The most common method of providing access to toilet and washing facilities are in-cell. However, in some prisons, it has proved impossible or impractical to fit in-cell sanitation in some cells. The table provided below details the number of cells which, as of 20<sup>th</sup> October 2023, provide 24-hour access to sanitation by other means. These broadly fall into two categories.</p><p>In some parts of the Open and Women’s Estate, open access to shared facilities is available in certain parts of the prison. This open access is also available behind locked spurs with unlocked cells in certain Category C Male prisons. In the table below, these cells are listed as “Communal Access” and can currently be found in 29 prisons (11 open prisons, 11 training prisons, five women’s prisons and two reception prisons) across the estate.</p><p>Meanwhile, 21 prisons have some cells that provide access to facilities via an electronic unlocking system, whereby prisoners are able to request access via an in-cell call bell. This allows the cell door to be opened remotely for a limited period of time to allow access to shared facilities on the wing. In the table below, these cells are listed as “Controlled Unlock”.

answer text <p>Between 01 January and 31 December 2022, 47,690 working days were lost due to stress. We are unable to make a distinction between sickness caused generally by stress. The average working days lost figure for stress related sickness was 2.7 per staff member.</p><p> </p><p>We are focused on ensuring our staff have the support they need to manage workplace stress, including support for staff and managers such as Occupational Health and the Employee Assistance Programme. Staff are also able to access additional support through staff networks, staff support leads and the HMPPS network of Mental Health Allies. This is balanced with a robust approach to attendance management to ensure that staff absence is kept to a minimum.</p><p> </p><p>We have exceeded our recruitment targets for the last three years. We recruited over 1,000 trainee probation officers in 2020/21, 1,500 2021/22 and a further 1,500 in 2022/23. Those staff are now starting to finish their training and take on full caseloads.</p><p> </p><ol><li>Average working days lost per member of staff is calculated as number of working days lost to sickness divided by the average number of full-time equivalent staff for a year.</li></ol>
