Employment Workbook [Probation Series]

The book explores the challenges offenders face when reintegrating into work or education, emphasizing the critical role stable employment plays in rehabilitation. It highlights the need for practitioners to effectively balance motivation, realism, and direction in supporting clients. Rather than viewing employment as merely a job, the focus is on finding positions that align with clients' interests, fostering motivation and helping them overcome obstacles to achieve their goals. This approach is framed as essential for facilitating positive change and encouraging desistance.
