ANNOTATION: “Jail staff costs comprise over two-thirds of annual jail operating costs. Managing this valuable, critical and costly resource poses challenges for jail managers and policymakers. In 1987, the National Institute of Corrections (NIC) offered a new resource, the NIC Staffing Analysis Workbook for Jails, First Edition. Written for NIC by Rod Miller and Dennis R. Liebert, the Workbook described a new, systematic approach to staffing analysis and presented new methodologies to the field. Many jails embraced the NIC Workbook and its methodology. NIC updated it in 2001.” This is the best resource for determining staffing needs. This website provides the latest access to: the Second Edition of the “Staffing Analysis Workbook for Jails”; articles from Sheriff magazine (2005-2007); the steps in the staffing analysis process; earlier forms and checklists in the First Edition Workbook; continually improving the process and methodology; from “relief factor” to net annual work hours; and available files.
