Role Profile Prison Officers conduct the majority of the face to face interactions with people committed to prison throughout their sentence including transportation from court; committal; safety; security; accommodation; supporting access to healthcare, psychology, in reach services, work training, education and visits by family friends and legal representatives; maintaining good order and discipline; and supporting their care, progression, desistence and rehabilitation in order that they can safely reintegrate back into their communities on completion of their sentence.

It is a condition of the Collective Agreement that persons availing of the agreement will not be eligible for re-employment in the Public Service by any Public Service body (as defined by the Financial Emergency Measures in the Public Interest Acts 2009 2011) for a period of 2 years from termination of the employment.

Therefore, such retirees may not apply for this position. Department of Health and Children Circular (7/2010) The Department of Health Circular 7/2010 dated 1 November 2010 introduced a Targeted Voluntary Early Retirement (VER) Scheme and Voluntary Redundancy Schemes (VRS). It is a condition of the VER scheme that persons availing of the scheme will not be eligible for reemployment in the public health sector or in the wider Public Service or in a body wholly or mainly funded from public moneys.

Recruit Prison Officers will be liable to be assigned to other areas of the Irish Prison Service from time to time according to the exigencies of the Service. Recruit Prison Officers may seek to transfer to other locations in the service - see Appendix 1. Transfer list priority is based on seniority. Based on existing transfer waiting lists, Prison Officers may expect to wait a minimum of 5 years before progressing to the top of a transfer list for particular prisons and in some cases more than 10 years. The length of time is dependent on the number of staff seeking a transfer and the number of retirees in a particular location. The Irish Prison Service cannot predict the duration of the wait for any location, given the factors involved. Outside Employment The position will be whole time and appointees may not engage in private practice or be connected with any outside business which would interfere with the performance of official duties. Uniform The Irish Prison Service is a uniformed organisation. Staff are obliged to comply with standards relating to dress, appearance and deportment, which are a critical element of prosocial modelling.
