Inmates work in food preparation, maintenance or in federal prison industries. As FCI writes, "All inmates are expected to maintain a regular job assignment. Many job assignments are controlled through a Performance Pay System, which provides monetary payment for work. The Federal Prison Industries, has a separate pay scale. Unit staff approve job changes and see that the changes are posted on the Daily Change Sheet. Institutional maintenance jobs are usually the first assignment an inmate receives. These might include work in Food Service, as a unit orderly, or in amaintenance shop; however, FCI-I and SPC Butner has a significant number of inmate jobs in the factory operated by Federal Prison Industries, also known as UNICOR. There is a waiting list for factory employment. UNICOR employs and trains inmates through the operation of, and earnings from, factories producing high quality products and services for the Federal Government. Some examples of products and services UNICOR produces are electronic cable assemblies, executive and systems furniture, metal pallet racks, stainless steel food service equipment, eye glasses, mattresses, towels, utility bags, clothing, brooms, data entry, signs, and printing. UNICOR earnings fund other inmate programs, as well as pre-industrial training to prepare inmates for employment." Read the FCI Butner inmate manual for yourself --click at top right. |
