An often- stated saying in a prison is "24-7." referring to the fact that prisons are operational twenty- four hours per day, seven days per week. Inmates must live in the prison and endure the environment twenty-four hours per day, seven days per week. Staff usually work only forty hours per week, but still relate to 24-7 as they understand that the environment during the time they are there is impacted by events that occur in the prison at any other time. If there is a breakdown in security or a conflict between two inmate groups on a Sunday at 8:00 P.M., the staff working the "day-watch" on Monday may have to deal with the results of that breakdown or conflict. In every sense, maintaining prison security is a 24-7 responsibility. What are the key elements for managing security within a prison? There are no simple solutions to how to maintain safety and security. and it is getting more difficult to do so. 291
