Topic | Work program for released inmates |
Content | W have inmates being released from prison on mostly drug related crimes. However, employers will not hire them because they are felons.
Suggestion: Create state operated units around the state, much like manpower companies. These former inmates would register their skills and be assigned work through this office. All paper work, e.g. insurance, workman comp and bonding would be handled by the "manpower office". The employing client would pay an hourly rate that includes the above, plus operating cost of the office. This would be a service to both the former inmate and the job market without costing the state tax payers money. (Could even contract with a company like Express Personnel to operate the units) |
