LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR

It is my privilege to inform readers of the successful completion of the 154th
International Training Course on Stress Management of Correctional Personnel — Enhancing
the Capacity of Mid-Level Staff, which took place from 15 May to 28 June 2013.
In this Course, we welcomed 7 Japanese participants and 12 overseas participants: 2
from Africa, 8 from Asia, and 2 from Oceania. The participants included 3 prosecutors, 4 law
enforcement officers, 1 correctional officer, 3 probation officers and other criminal justicepractioners.
As this newsletter demonstrates, the Course was extremely productive. It consisted ofindividual presentations, group workshops, and plenary sessions, visits to relevant criminal
justice agencies, and lectures by visiting experts, ad hoc lecturers and faculty members.
UNAFEI, as one of the institutes of the United Nations Crime Prevention and Criminal
Justice Programme Network, held this Course to offer participants an opportunity to shareexperiences, gain knowledge, and examine the issue of stress management of correctional
personnel, as well as to build a human network of counterparts to further international
cooperation.
Officers who engage in the treatment of offenders often must suppress their emotions
and maintain patience on the job. Naturally, treatment of offenders can be stressful, and, thus,
officers experience work-related stress. For example, crimes are often caused by offenders'cognitive distortions, which in turn result in unreasonable claims or violent acts directedagainst officers in correctional settings. Even in these cases, officers must treat offenders
calmly and dispassionately without anger, injustice, or hatred.
Furthermore, the rising populations of offenders, including difficult-to-treat offenders,increase the quantity of work of correctional staff, which results in a loss of focus on offender
treatment. Some offenders may feel they are not treated appropriately and become aggressive.
As a result, correctional officers’ stress will become more serious.
During the Course, the participants diligently and comprehensively examined the stressmanagement of correctional personnel, primarily through a comparative analysis. The
participants shared their own experiences and knowledge of the issues and identified
problems and areas in which improvements could be made. With the academic and practical
inputs from the visiting experts, ad hoc lecturers and UNAFEI faculty — and the in-depth
discussions they had with each other — the participants are now better equipped to cope withthe challenges of stress management of correctional personnel in their own countries.
I would like to offer my sincere congratulations to all of the participants upon theirsuccessful completion of the Course, made possible by their strenuous efforts. My heartfelt
gratitude goes out to the visiting experts and ad hoc lecturers who contributed a great deal to
the Course’s success. Furthermore, I appreciate the indispensable assistance and cooperation
extended to UNAFEI by various agencies and institutions that helped diversify the Course.
I would also like to express my great appreciation to the Japan International Cooperation

2

Agency (JICA) for its immeasurable support throughout the Course. At the same time, awarm tribute must be paid to the Asia Crime Prevention Foundation (ACPF) and its branchorganizations for their substantial contributions to our activities. Lastly, I owe my gratitude
to all the individuals whose unselfish efforts behind the scenes contributed significantly to thesuccessful realization of this Course.
Upon returning to their home countries, I genuinely believe that, like their predecessors,
the strong determination and dedication of the participants will enable them to work towards
the improvement of their respective nations’ criminal justice systems, and towards the benefit
of international society as a whole.
Finally, I would like to reiterate my best regards to the participants of the 154th
International Training Course. I hope that the experience they gained during the Course
proves valuable in their daily work and that the bonds fostered among the participants,
visiting experts and UNAFEI staff will continue to grow for many years to come.

THE 154TH INTERNATIONAL TRAINING COURSESTRESS MANAGEMENT OF CORRECTIONAL PERSONNEL — ENHANCING
THE CAPACITY OF MID-LEVEL STAFF
Course Rationale
I. STRESS OF CORRECTIONAL PERSONNEL
Officers who engage in the treatment of offenders often must suppress their emotions,manage stress, and maintain patience on the job. Naturally, treatment of offenders can be
stressful, and officers experience work-related stress. For example, crimes are often caused
by offenders' cognitive distortions, which in turn result in unreasonable claims or violent acts
directed against officers in correctional settings. Even in these cases, officers must treat
offenders calmly and dispassionately without anger, injustice, or hatred.
Furthermore, the rising populations of both traditional offenders and difficult-to-treat
special offenders increase the quantity of work of correctional staff, which results in a loss offocus on offender treatment. Some offenders may feel they are not treated appropriately andbecome aggressive. As a result, correctional officers’ stress will become more serious.
II. COPING WITH STRESS OF CORRECTIONAL PERSONNEL
For the purpose of preventing the serious problems caused by officers’ stress, mid-levelstaff must improve their capacity for stress management. There are three important elements
for capacity-building of mid-level staff: identifying correctional officers’ stress, analysing thecauses of their work-related stress (problems), and learning how to implement appropriate
solutions. One of the main causes of correctional officers’ stress is the treatment ofdifficult-to-treat offenders, and to solve this problem, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) andother advanced techniques can work. Furthermore, the capacity of mid-level staff will beenhanced by anger management, staff training for stress management and offender treatment
programmes.
III. OBJECTIVES OF THE PROGRAMMEThis programme offered participants an opportunity to deepen their understanding andshare experiences and knowledge on enhancing the capacity of mid-level staff engaged in thecriminal justice system from the perspective of stress management of correctional personnel.
Another objective of the programme was to establish a global network of counterparts tofacilitate the exchange of updated information on country practices.
In order to achieve these objectives, this programme provided an opportunity to identify
and examine current situations and challenges existing in the participants’ countries anddeveloped the participants’ knowledge of possible measures to improve current practices.
These objectives were achieved via lectures, review of examples of effective
countermeasures in Japan, participants’ dialogue, role-plays and discussions.

4

Major topics studied included the following:1) Understanding of the current situation(i) Sharing experiences of stressful problems in the respective countries’ criminal
justice settings
The participants shared the following information as it applies to their countries: "Whatare the causes of officers’ stress in the correctional setting (or the criminal justice setting)?"
The purpose of this step was to identify the stressful problems existing within theparticipants’ organizations.
More specifically, the purpose of the Individual Presentation is to identify the stressful
problems faced in the criminal justice setting of each participating country andcountermeasures. Participants presented on this topic, which included the following
examples:Treatment of offenders
z Overburdening of correctional officers
z Operational inefficiency
z Work environmentz Human relationsz(ii) Analysis
Based on the lectures on anger management, staff training for stress management, andoffender treatment programmes, each participant reviewed the causes of the problems facedby the participant’s organization.
2) Theory / Practice(i) Stress management and capacity of mid-level staff
The important theories for capacity for mid-level staff are objective thinking andcognitive restructuring: the ability to solve on-the-job problems that contribute to stress(leadership and the ability to look objectively at the situation). These theories were also
learned through anger management, staff training for stress management, and offender
treatment programmes.
(ii) The Best Solutions
The participants were divided into small groups where they discussed the best solutions
to the problems. Through the discussions during the Group Workshop sessions, theparticipants developed professional abilities which are necessary for mid-level staff.
As mentioned above, each participant was required to submit an Individual Presentation
Paper regarding the course topic as it applies to his or her country and to explain and discussthese topics in his or her Individual Presentation.

Course Summary
Lectures
In total, the participants attended 22 lectures — 6 presented by the visiting experts, 9
by ad hoc lecturers and 7 by the faculty of UNAFEI. Two distinguished criminal justiceacademics and practitioners from abroad served as UNAFEI’s visiting experts. They lectured
on issues relating to the main theme of the Course and contributed significantly beyond theirlectures by encouraging discussions after their lectures, participating in the discussions ofother programmes, and conversing with the participants on informal occasions. Additionally,
the ad hoc lectures were delivered by distinguished senior officials of the Government of Japan,
a professor and a research associate from Waseda University, and 4 senior Japanese corrections
and probation officers. The lecturers and lecture topics are listed on pages 6 to 8.
Individual Presentations
During the first three weeks, all participants delivered individual presentations which
introduced the situation, problems and future prospects of the participants’ countries. Thesepapers were compiled onto a USB memory stick and distributed to all the participants. The
titles of these individual presentation papers are listed on pages 9 and 10.
Group Workshop Sessions
Group workshop sessions provided the participants with the opportunity to further
examine sub-topics of the main theme. In order to conduct each session effectively, the
UNAFEI faculty selected individuals to serve as group members based on their responses to apreviously distributed questionnaire. Selected participants served as chairpersons,co-chairpersons, rapporteurs or co-rapporteurs, and faculty members served as advisers. Eachgroup’s primary responsibility was to explore and develop their designated topics in thegroup workshop sessions. The participants and UNAFEI faculty studied the topics andexchanged their views based on information obtained through personal experience, theindividual presentations, lectures and so forth. After the group workshop sessions, reports
were drafted based on the discussions in their groups. These reports were subsequently
presented in the plenary meeting and report-back session, where they were endorsed as thereports of the Course. Brief summaries of the group workshop reports are provided on pages
11 to 14.
Visits and Special Events
Visits to various agencies and institutions in Japan helped the participants obtain a morepractical understanding of the Japanese criminal justice system. In addition to the Course’s
academic agenda, many activities were arranged to provide a greater understanding ofJapanese society and culture, with the assistance of various organizations and individuals,
including the Asia Crime Prevention Foundation (ACPF). For more detailed descriptions,please refer to pages 15 to 18.

Report SummaryGroup 1 reported on the causes of stress, stress management solutions, and theabilities required for mid-level correctional staff to solve the problem of work-related stress.
Although there are many causes of stress, the group focused on the five main issues thatcause stress: (1) limited corrections budgets; (2) the nature of corrections work; (3) prison
overcrowding; (4) lack of leadership and management; and (5) lack of adequate training.
Limited corrections budgets affect both inmates and officers: inmates suffer frominadequate care and facilities, and officers are understaffed, overworked and underpaid.
Solving this problem requires improved advocacy for budget allocations and effective
management of limited resources. Mid-level staff must link budget proposals withorganizational goals. Further, they must improve managerial skills and motivate their staffs.
The nature of corrections work is inherently stressful because officers deal withthreats, inmates’ demands, and the diversity and seriousness of criminal problems. Solutions
include maintaining law and order, improved teamwork, and instituting effective treatment
programmes. Overcrowding causes significant stress; the group emphasized the importanceof alternative sentencing and diversion programmes to solve this problem. To solve these
problems, mid-level staff must lead by example, use teamwork and communicate effectively.
Lack of leadership and management is caused by the lack of skills and poor strategicplanning. Managers must develop sound administrative and human-resource policies to solve
this problem. Mid-level staff must learn to engage in strategic planning, recruit and develop
human resources, and motivate subordinates.
Lack of adequate training causes stress for employees who do not feel they haveadequate knowledge to perform their jobs. Solutions include training all levels of employees
and actively encouraging staff participation in the programmes. Mid-level staff must have theability to plan and execute training programmes and manage human resources effectively.

12

Sometimes, despite our best efforts, problems cannot be solved. In these cases,
mid-level staff must engage in stress management to reduce stress. The group reported
numerous techniques to manage stress drawn from the Individual Presentations (i.e. leadingbalanced lives and religious/spiritual pursuits) and the Visiting Experts (i.e. the Golden Ratio).
Mid-level staff can improve their abilities by (1) using reliable assessment
programmes to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of their subordinates; (2) designing
tailor-made training programmes in response; (3) broadening professional exposure byattending senior officer meetings, gaining experience in different departments, and attending
overseas training seminars; (4) knowledge sharing of rules and regulations, case studies, staff
welfare issues, etc. using Hong Kong’s “Knowledge Management System” (KMS) databaseas a model; and (5) “horizontal” development by performing tasks outside of their core duties.

Report SummaryGroup 2 reported on measures that can be taken by mid-level staff to address
work-related stress in correctional settings. The group discussed (1) the current situationand countermeasures in the countries of each participant in the group, (2) common problems
and countermeasures faced by all countries; and (3) enhancing leadership of mid-level staff.
Overcrowding, the nature of corrections work, lack of budget and staff, lack of facilities andequipment, lack of communication, and lack of training and leadership skills were allidentified as factors that cause work-related stress. Recognizing that budgets are almost
always limited, the group focused on using the limited resources available in the best way toachieve desired targets.
The group began by identifying the current situation of stress faced by correctional
officers in each country participating in the group, as well as countermeasures against it.
Next, the following common problems were identified: (1) lack of communication; (2)insufficient training, and (3) lack of leadership. First, the group recommended implementing
feedback systems, including the Plan, Do, Check, Act (PDCA) Cycle as the primary method
for improving communication within the workplace. Additionally, mid-level staff areencouraged to take action that will increase communication and improve the work
environment, such as encouraging open communication, scheduling regular meetings, andconsidering use of the “large room” system, which is currently being evaluated by theJapanese Public Prosecutors’ Office. Next, frequent mistakes, low morale, and feelings ofincompetency were identified as problems caused by insufficient staff training; emphasis on
basic, follow-up, specialized and on-the-job training was proposed as a countermeasure.
Finally, the group proposed using Performance and Maintenance (PM) Theory to address lackof leadership by focusing on providing support and feedback to subordinates.
The group reported that enhancing leadership of mid-level staff was vital to reducing
work-related stress. Mid-level staff should (1) evaluate the performance of their subordinates;(2) delegate authority; (3) increase employee autonomy and accountability; (4) improve
decision-making skills; (5) practice “transformational leadership”; and (6) receive systematicand organized training.
To achieve effective stress management, the group made the following
recommendations: that all correctional institutions (A) adopt stress management programmes;

14(B) establish a communications network in order to share important information timely,
accurately, and objectively; and (C) provide employees with appropriate and continuous
education and training, and train mid-level staff to properly delegate authority.
