EMPLOYMENT OF PERSONS SENTENCED TO IMPRISONMENT AS A MEASURE OF EDUCATIONAL INFLUENCE

In the context of ongoing political and legal reforms in the penal enforcement system, the priority is the re-socialization of persons sentenced to imprisonment. One of the ways to re-socialize such people is to involve them in work. Labor as a measure of influence on the personality of the offender remains a very effective measure for a long time. The author of the article highlights the key problems faced in the process of employment of convicted persons in prison. In particular, issues of insufficient resource provision, gaps in legislation, as well as issues of interaction between interested bodies in the employment of convicts are considered. This article reveals the importance of convict employment as one of the goals of punishment, discusses the advantages and challenges faced in this area, and analyzes strategies and programs aimed at increasing convict employment and reducing recidivism.
