Dear Ms. Lipton,
I am writing in response to your Kansas Open Records Act (KORA) request to the Department of Corrections (KDOC) for the following:
1. All policies related to the employment and payment of incarcerated persons under the jurisdiction of this agency.
2. The most recent report regarding currently-employed incarcerated persons under the jurisdiction of this agency. Please include all available segregable information, including the type of employment, the wage at which the employment occurs, and any other applicable information. Please do not include any personally identifying information.
3. All reports regarding post-incarceration employment for individuals formally under the jurisdiction of this agency.
In response to the first part of your request, I have attached copies of the following:
* 04-103D Inmate Trust Fund
* 04-109A Earnings Disbursement for Offenders Engaged in Work Release Employment
* 10-101A Offender Programs and Services
* 10-109A Offender Work Assignment
* 11-101 Offender Privileges and Incentives
* 11-124 Job Performance Information for Offenders
* 15-101A WORK RELEASE AND PRISON/NON-PRISON BASED PRIVATE INDUSTRY PROGRAMS: Selection Criteria and Placement Procedures
* 10-128D PROGRAM AND SERVICES: Development and Implementation of Private Prison-Based and Private Non Prison-Based Industry Employment Programs (Please note: This IMPP is currently being updated with regard to the order in which wages are determined)
In response to part 2, the KDOC does not have an existing report that includes both the job name and the wage. To create such a report, KDOC staff estimate it would require eight hours of labor, billed at $38.00 per hour, to fulfill part 2 of your request. Therefore, you would be billed $304.00 for this information.
Should you wish for the KDOC to provide the information you requested for part 2 of your request, please provide a check or money order in the amount of $304.00 payable to the Kansas Department of Corrections. You may send the check or money order to my attention as follows:
Cheryl Cadue
Kansas Department of Corrections
714 SW Jackson St., Suite 300
Topeka, KS 66603
The KDOC will not begin work on this request until payment has been received.
In response to part 3 of your request, KDOC research staff state that the KDOC does not have consistent or reliable data on which to build a report. Therefore, this portion of your request cannot be fulfilled.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Cheryl Cadue
