Our Detention Officers routinely deal with conflict and their resilience to this is tested constantly. Not only is this physical conflict but also they need the ability to deal with people that 'just don't like you'. It is hard work dealing with detainees and it can be a negative environment because of this. Staff who do not do so well in this role are those that are reticent in volunteering for tasks and do not 'pull their weight' in the team.

The most important skills are those that are professional - and strive to always do the role to the best of their ability. Employees need to meet a good standard of delivery, enjoy teamwork. They must have excellent communication skills and confidence in working with all members of society. Detention Officers need to be able to diffuse situations, have a positive approach, demonstrate empathy, and offer reassurance.
