Will correctional officer's jobs suffer because of the economy?
Asked by Salamander Way
More or less than other jobs out there?
A:
Best Answer:
I would expect the need for correctional officers to increase. Crime usually increases during bad economy because additional people will turn to crime. More people going to jail means more officers, I would think.
A:
No, government jobs are immune to recessions. It's not like you are working in a car factory and then people stop buying cars.

A:
Most likely not. I actually just went on a tour of the Lorain Correctional Institute in Grafton, Ohio which is a reception center for all of northeast Ohio on Wednesday and we talked about that a little bit, coming to the conclusion that crime its going to stop which gives good job security.
