Abstract
If prisoners are to return to their communities and maintain law-abiding lifestyles, they must be provided with accessible tools. Instead of providing ex-prisoners with subsistence incomes, it seems to be more beneficial to provide decent job skills before release and assistance in securing employment upon and after release. Another aspect that has to be taken into account are the rising costs of prison building and service. To lower these costs and to keep people out of prison (more) investments in employment schemes and vocational schemes for ex-prisoners are needed. Active participation of employers to solve these problems is needed. To achieve better results, good cooperation between the prison service, the probation service, labour exchange bureaus, the Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment and potential public and private employers seems to be essential.
