Correctional Officers
Speak About Vests
From a Female
Correctional Officer, California Department of
Corrections and Rehabilitation
I work at a male prison in CA., I was issued
a vest fitted for me. It still seems to be too
high in the waist, but at least I have one that
was made for me. Hopefully I will never need to
find out if it actually works, but I hope if I
ever need it, it will do its job!
From a Correctional
Officer, Nevada Department of Corrections
I am the only female officer who works in the
Disruptive Group Management Unit, working with
Administrative and Disciplinary Segregation
inmates. I wear a male vest. I know that there
are female vests out there because when they
first started to purchase the vests for these
housing units, the female vests were more
specific to our breast size. The male vests are
large, XL, etc. We were told that female vests
would not be cost effective because more people
could wear vests designed for males.
