The cumulative length of service, in years, held by all prison officers is given in Table 1 below. Most years\u2019 figures are given as at 31 December each year, aside from 2023, where the latest published figures are as at 30 September 2023.<\/p>
HMPPS has a strong training offer for new recruits which ensures all officers are equipped to perform their roles safely and securely. Total and average length of service in the workforce will increase as HMPPS\u2019s new recruits from recent years continue in the prison service, who we are seeking to support through a number of programmes aimed at increasing retention.<\/p>
This includes the introduction of over 150 new colleague mentors to support new staff in their roles, which takes the pressure off both experienced Prison Officers and managers, and, a Career Pathways framework to enable staff to identify their development needs and career aspirations. We are also running supervision pilots in three prisons alongside the introduction of new leadership training, which will contribute to supporting career development and retention of experienced officers.<\/p>
