Across Canada, provincial correctional service agencies have the responsibility to supervise convicted offenders who have been directed by the courts to serve their time in the community, e.g., on Probation or Conditional Sentence. In other cases, convicted offenders are directed to serve their time in jail but may receive permission to be released early on Parole, or temporarily released for short periods. For all of these cases, correctional agencies have the mandate to supervise these offenders in the community while managing the public’s safety. Electronic monitoring provides these agencies with tools to help meet the challenges of their important role: officers can focus on supervising their offenders and keeping them accountable while the technology monitors compliance with house arrest, home curfew, alcohol abstinence and movement restrictions.
