The Comparison of Contact with Inmates, Risk Perception, and Mental Health of Officers in a Correctional Institution with Different Levels of Security

Introduction: Correctional institutions (LP) have various levels of security that are adjusted to the characteristics of the inmates accommodated in it. This level of security includes minimum, medium, and maximum prisons and often includes special prisons for prisoners with special needs or high danger. Differences in security levels present unique dynamics and challenges in contact between officers and inmates, perceptions of risk, and their impact on officers' mental health.
 Methods: This study is an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 116 research subjects participated in this study. This study observes contact between officers and inmates using the contact with inmate scale. Perception of risk is measured by a scale compiled by Ferdik. The mental health assessment of correctional worker participants used the mental health inventory (MHI-38) made by Veit and Ware.
 Results: Officers in medium-security level penitentiaries have more positive contact with inmates than in maximum and super-maximum security level penitentiaries. Likewise, the aspect of officer risk perception in medium-security level penitentiaries shows a lower score than in maximum and super-maximum security level penitentiaries. However, super-maximum security level penitentiary officers show a lower level of mental health than medium security level penitentiaries.
 Conclusion: There are differences in correctional officers' contact with inmates, risk perception, and mental health of correctional officers in prisons with different levels of security.

К вопросу об оперативно-режимных мерах обеспечения личной безопасности осужденных, содержащихся в исправительных колониях

The article is devoted to an empirical study of the socio-psychological aspects of the problem of emotional burnout and psychological stability of employees of penitentiary institutions in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. The relevance of studying the problem is due to the fact that the requirements for employees of the penal system have increased in connection with the spread of a new coronavirus infection and the workload on staff has increased due to the tightening of sanitary and epidemiological requirements for working conditions. The article reveals the difficulties faced by employees of the penitentiary system in their professional activities in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of this empirical study is to establish the current level of emotional burnout and emotional stability of employees of the penitentiary system in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Prison service employee’s empathy and professional burnout

Prison service employees belong to a professional group that is susceptible to a quick professional burnout. They spend a few hours per day in a limited space with the same individuals – the co-workers and the prisoners. While providing support to the latter ones, they frequently do not see the results of their own work. Moreover, when staying in a close contact, especially the direct one, with the socially maladjusted persons – the so-called challenging client, the process of their desensitization is triggered. Thus, the aim of the author’s own research was to define the level of emotional and cognitive empathy as well as the severity of the occupational burnout of penitentiary educators and security officers in penal institutions. Therefore the author’s own research was conducted by applying a diagnostic survey method using the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory (OLBI) in order to determine the extent to which the surveyed individuals are professionally burned out.. Moreover, the Polish version of the Interpersonal Reactivity Index was used to provide the answer to the question regarding the level of empathy of the respondents. The study involved seventy (70) officers of the Prison Service from four penitentiary units of the District Inspectorate of Prison Service in Bialystok and Lublin, half of whom were penitentiary educators.

The Role of the Supervision and Observation Judge on Guidance for Inmates

Judicial institutions, as law enforcement agencies in the Criminal Justice System, are a foundation of hopes for justice seekers, as based on Article 2 section (4) of Law No. 48 of 2009, regulates that “the Court is done simply, quickly, and at a low cost”. Therefore, this study aims to determine the implementation of the Supervision and Observation Judge's role and the obstacles that affect the Supervision and Observation Judge's performance in implementing Court Decisions in the Penitentiary. This study uses two types of research, namely normative legal research and empirical legal research. This research was conducted at the Makassar Class I Penitentiary and the Makassar Class IA District Court. The types of data used in this study include primary data and secondary data. The data that has been collected is then processed descriptively qualitatively. The results of the study concluded that the implementation of the role of the Supervision and Observation Judge in the implementation of the decision of the Makassar Class IA District Court at the Makassar Class I Penitentiary has not run optimally, because between The Supervision and Observation Judge and the Head of the Penitentiary rarely meet and discuss guidance issues for Inmates at the Penitentiary. The obstacles in implementing the role of the Supervision and Observation Judge at the Penitentiary include the problem of insufficient funds available for operational supervision and observation and the absence of special staff to assist the Supervision and Observation Judge in recording their Inmates. Therefore, more specific implementing regulations are needed to certify that the judgment is being properly executed and under the laws and regulations in Indonesia. Furthermore, there is a need for effective cooperation between the Supervision and Observation Judge and the Penitentiary Officers, who must always coordinate as one unit in an integrated Criminal Justice System.

ФОРМУВАННЯ ПРОФЕСІЙНИХ ІНФОРМАЦІЙНО-КОМУНІКАТИВНИХ КОМПЕТЕНТНОСТЕЙ ОФІЦЕРІВ ПЕНІТЕНЦІАРНОЇ СИСТЕМИ В УМОВАХ СТУПЕНЕВОЇ ОСВІТИ КРІЗЬ ПРИЗМУ ІНТЕГРАЦІЇ НАВЧАЛЬНИХ ДИСЦИПЛІН

Процеси реформування пенітенціарної сфери нашої країни вимагають підготовки всебічно досвідчених офіцерів-пенітенціаріїв, які володіють компетентностями, що допомагають вирішувати їм службово-професійні завдання на якісному рівні. До набору сучасних професійних компетентностей належить інформаційно-комунікативна компетентність, яка дозволяє швидко обробляти велику кількість інформації, вміло складати певні службові документи, вести діловодство за допомогою систем електронного документознавства, вміти налагоджувати систему адміністративної комунікації в установах виконання покарань, встановлювати гідні стосунки в колективі, між персоналом та контингентом установ виконання покарань тощо. 
 Сучасні підходи до формування професійних компетентностей, в тому числі й інформаційно-комунікативних, офіцерів Державної кримінально-виконавчої служби в умовах ступеневої освіти повинні базуватися на нових формах і методах отримання знань, вмінь та навичок протягом навчання у закладі вищої освіти. Одним із шляхів набуття інформаційно-комунікативної компетентності є здобуття знань, вмінь та навичок за допомогою інтегративних навчальних занять.
 Автором подано приклади поєднання певних навчальних дисциплін, що дають змогу отримати інтегративні знання, на основі яких відпрацьовуються згодом вміння та навички для майбутньої квазіпрофесійної діяльності у пенітенціарній сфері. В статті наголошено на обов’язковому застосування інформаційних технологій для проведення інтегративних занять та запропоновані певні форми їх проведення, а саме: ділові ігри, кейс-технології, проекти та інші. Такі форми інтегративних навчальних занять вимагають від викладачів більш уважної підготовки дидактичного матеріалу за навчальними дисциплінами, що інтегруються у певні модульні інтеграційні блоки, окремі навчальні заняття, а також постійного вдосконалення власних знань, вмінь та навичок, більш високої ерудиції.
 Головне, що інтегровані навчальні заняття дають змогу встановити тісні міжпредметні зв’язки, здійснити синтез навчального матеріалу двох, трьох навчальних дисциплін за спорідненими темами, сформувати у майбутніх офіцерів-пенітенціаріїв об’ємне поліпредметне системне бачення, отримати певні вміння та навички користуватися сучасними інструментами інформаційних технологій для вирішення складних завдання, що потребують сучасних знань та часу для відпрацювання певних управлінських рішень тощо. 
 Напрямком для подальших досліджень є створення інструментарію організації системної дидактико-інтегративної моделі формування професійних компетентностей майбутніх офіцерів-пенітенціаріїв.

Penitentiary Tutors’ Activities with Muslims Prisoners. Between Uniformisation and Identity Shaping

This article discusses securing the right to respect for one's own religion, identity, and culture. However, it confronts them with penitentiary practice in Polish organizational and legal conditions. There emerges an interesting space for analysing different tendencies to uniformize the conditions of punishment and protection of individualization. Not only are procedural issues involved, but, above all, the mentality and attitudes presented by penitentiary officers. The deliberations are focused on a kind of conflict between yielding under the demands of a different culture and the resistance of prison staff against respecting them. Presented conclusions are the results of field research among penitentiary officers in Poland, but they all start a discussion on the creation of penitentiary policy in this area, especially in countries with poor experience in working with Muslims.
