Correctional services play a key role in Ontario’s criminal justice system. Ontario operates adult correctional institutions and probation and parole offices for offenders serving jail sentences of less than two years and community supervision for up to three years. This includes the supervision of adult offenders under provincial parole supervision, as well as providing programs and services designed to assist in offender rehabilitation.
Career opportunities in correctional services are diverse and exciting, and corrections staff take pride in making a difference in the lives of those in custody and under supervision. Corrections staff help keep communities safe while safeguarding the human rights of individuals placed in the correctional system.
