Job Duties

Positions of Correction Lieutenant (Spanish Language) exist in both the correctional facilities and the Training Academy of the Department of Correctional Services.

In most correctional facilities, under the direction of a Correction Captain, the Lieutenant (Spanish Language) is normally the third highest ranking uniformed officer, supervising all lower ranking uniformed officers to ensure the security and safety of all persons and property on a given shift. Within each facility, a Correction Lieutenant (Spanish Language) may have a specific assignment area, or group of assignments, which will determine the amount of direct security supervision they will administer, such as a Lieutenant in charge of an inmate discipline program. Additionally, a Lieutenant is normally assigned in each regional facility area (HUB) to be responsible for implementing and managing a training program as part of the Department's staff development of all facility employees.

Correction Lieutenants (Spanish Language) at minimum-security facilities, such as a camp or work release facility, may have full responsibility for the security measures and administration of such under the direct supervision of the Superintendent.

Correction Lieutenants (Spanish Language) at the Training Academy are responsible for administering and evaluating all aspects of the Departmental training programs for classes of Correction Officer Trainees as well as the in-service programs offered at the Academy and in the facilities for current employees.
