“I have repeatedly called on BOP and OPM to approve this 25 percent retention incentive for all staff in good standing at FCC Hazelton and I’m pleased to announce its approval today. The facility has long suffered from severe staffing shortages, especially of Correctional Officers, that have resulted in a hostile environment for both employees and inmates. This pay incentive is much-deserved for current employees and will help recruit new qualified officers and staff, which will promote safer conditions for employees and inmates. There is still much more we can do, including advancing my Federal Prison Oversight Act, and I will continue working to deliver commonsense solutions for FCC Hazelton and all federal prisons.”
