At present, institutions administered by the Prisons Department in

Hong Kong have a daily prison/inmate population of a little over 6,100 with

1,581 persona being followed up in the department's after-care programme.

To prepare them for their work, all new recruits of the prisons

service are required to undergo a six-month induction training course in the

Prisons Department.

Once in the prisons service, staff members can enjoy all benefits

provided for civil servants, including housing, free medical treatment and

holidaye.

There are also other departmental benefits such as welfare funds,

staff clubs and free sports facilities.
