Your Tasks ###

  • You attentively observe developments in daily correctional life, assess them professionally, and document your assessments carefully and traceably.
  • From your observations in daily correctional life and your casework, you derive well-founded, traceably documented recommendations that help shape the further course of the sentence.

  • Even in stressful, contradictory, or borderline situations, you remain professional in relationships while simultaneously setting clear boundaries.
  • With a structured, reflective, and resilient way of working, you maintain an overview even in a dynamic and security-relevant environment.
