Burnham asked to address 'zero-hours' prison officers

HMP Millsike near York, operated by Mitie, is seeking to hire prison custody officers on flexible, task-based roles amid staff shortages and high violence levels. The prison has proposed employing workers on zero-hours contracts to support prisoner escort duties, prompting criticism from the prison officers’ union, which condemns the move as casualization occurring in a high-pressure environment. This recruitment effort occurs as the prison faces a significant staffing shortfall and ongoing concerns about safety and management.
