Duties Summary

Positions in the Parole Officer series perform professional work in the rehabilitation, monitoring, and control of adult inmates who have served time in prison and are to be released as parolees, and parolees who have already been released back into the community under the continued custody of the State and under conditions that permit reincarceration in the event parole requirements are violated.

Level III positions perform moderately complex parole work as described below.

Type A positions spend the majority of their time independently diagnosing and assessing pre-parole inmates to help plan for their eventual release from prison and make recommendations to the Parole Board on the probability of successful parole. Work involves reviewing case records and talking to facility caseworkers to determine whether inmates parole is warranted.; establishing levels of necessary supervision; developing treatment plans for inmates by discussing services needed, such as drug counseling, anger management, etc.; conducting home visits to assess where/with whom the inmate will be staying upon prison release; talking to potential employers to help locate/determine suitability of jobs; making presentations to the Parole Board; and performing other related duties as assigned.

Type B positions perform the same type of work as Type A above and in addition, receive training in more difficult Parole Officer tasks involving working with parolees such as conducting day/night surveillance; conducting parole violation investigations and writing up appropriate reports; participating in revocation hearings; and working with more difficult types of cases such as those which involve sex offenders, offenders with mental health problems, and high recidivism-risk offenders.

Level IV positions perform work at the experienced, fully independent worker level.

Positions provide intensive casework services to bring about social, mental health and economic readjustment of parolees while simultaneously ensuring the protection of the community. Positions in this class work with caseloads which include the most complex and possibly dangerous parolees; e.g., those convicted of drug and sex crimes, those with mental health problems, and high recidivism-risk clients; participate in parole revocation and other hearings by serving as a representative of the department during proceedings to render decisions on whether or not the conditions of parole have been violated; may also help train lower level Parole Officers; serve as team leaders; monitor the quality of services provided by other agencies for compliance with contract provisions; research trends in parole work; research and prepare grant proposals, reports and other documents to fund projects; and perform other related duties as assigned.
