Responsibilities and Procedures

  1. The Assistant Commissioner, Correctional Operations and Programs, following consultation with the Deputy Commissioner for Women in cases of women inmates, and when supported by the Regional Deputy Commissioner, is the final decision maker:
    1. for the reclassification to medium security of an inmate serving a life sentence for first or second degree murder, or an inmate convicted of a terrorism offence punishable by life, who is currently classified as maximum security, prior to the first security classification review
    2. for the reclassification of a Dangerous Offender to minimum security
  2. The Regional Deputy Commissioner will:
    1. forward a recommendation to the Assistant Commissioner, Correctional Operations and Programs, for final decision:
      1. for the reclassification to medium security of an inmate serving a life sentence for first or second degree murder, or an inmate convicted of a terrorism offence punishable by life, who is currently classified as maximum security, prior to the first security classification review
      2. for the reclassification of a Dangerous Offender to minimum security
    2. be the final decision maker if they disagree with the Institutional Head's recommendation to reclassify:
      1. to medium security an inmate serving a life sentence for first or second degree murder, or an inmate convicted of a terrorism offence punishable by life, who is currently classified as maximum security, prior to the first security classification review
      2. a Dangerous Offender to minimum security.
  3. The Institutional Head:
    1. will authorize an inmate's security reclassification, which can be delegated to:
      1. the Deputy Warden, except for cases where the security reclassification involves a transfer decision and/or an inmate serving a life sentence for first or second degree murder, an inmate convicted of a terrorism offence punishable by life, or a Dangerous Offender, or
      2. the Assistant Warden, Interventions, when the recommendation is to maintain the same security classification level, except for cases where the security classification involves a transfer decision and/or an inmate serving a life sentence for first or second degree murder, an inmate convicted of a terrorism offence punishable by life, or a Dangerous Offender
    2. will forward the recommendation to the Regional Deputy Commissioner for decision for:
      1. the reclassification to medium security of an inmate serving a life sentence for first or second degree murder, or an inmate convicted of a terrorism offence punishable by life, who is currently classified as maximum security, prior to the first security classification review

The inmate will be advised, at the same time, of the right to seek redress using the grievance process pursuant to CD 081 - Offender Complaints and Grievances.
  6. The Parole Officer/Primary Worker will complete all Security Classification Reviews and Reassessments.

Security Classification Review Timeframes

  1. A Security Classification Review (Security Reclassification Scale/Security Reclassification Scale for Women and Assessment for Decision) will be completed at least once every two years for inmates classified at maximum or medium security level. For Indigenous inmates, if this review falls while the offender is taking a main program, the Security Classification Review will be completed in accordance with paragraph 8
  2. For Indigenous inmates, a Security Classification Review (Security Reclassification Scale/Security Reclassification Scale for Women and Assessment for Decision) will be completed within thirty days of an inmate’s successful completion of a main program (based on the final Program Report date) for inmates classified at maximum or medium security level. This review is not required for an inmate serving a life sentence for first or second degree murder, or an inmate convicted of a terrorism offence punishable by life, who is currently classified as maximum security who has not had their first Security Classification Review, unless supported by the Case Management Team. 
  3. For Indigenous inmates participating in Pre-Pathways interventions/Pathways units, a Security Classification Review (Security Reclassification Scale/Security Reclassification Scale for Women and Assessment for Decision) will be initiated at least every six months and completed within thirty days of the Pathways Progress Review Meeting. This review is not required for an inmate serving a life sentence for first or second degree murder, or an inmate convicted of a terrorism offence punishable by life, who is currently classified as maximum security who has not had their first Security Classification Review, unless supported by the Case Management Team. 
  4. A Security Classification Review, in accordance with paragraphs 7, 8 and 9, is not required if the inmate has a confirmed release date within 90 days (for example, will be released on Statutory Release).
  5. A review of an inmate’s security classification will be completed prior to making a recommendation for any decision (e.g., transfer, temporary absence, work release or parole). This review only requires completion of the Security Reclassification Scale/Security Reclassification Scale for Women and an Assessment for Decision if there will be a change in security level.

Security Classification Review

  1. When conducting the inmate security level review, the Security Reclassification Scale/Security Reclassification Scale for Women will be administered and the results will be incorporated into the final assessment.
  2. The inmate security classification will take into consideration the factors as required by section  17 of the CCRR, including consideration of the Indigenous social history, if applicable.
  3. The final assessment will address section  18 of the CCRR, by setting out the analysis under the three headings of institutional adjustment, escape risk and risk to public safety.
  4. A psychological risk assessment is required for Dangerous Offenders when consideration is being given to minimum security reclassification.
  5. A mental health institutional assessment is required for inmates serving a life sentence for first or second degree murder or convicted of a terrorism offence punishable by life who are in a maximum security facility when consideration is being given to medium security reclassification.

Definitions

Dangerous offender: an offender who is subject to a designation by the court pursuant to section 753 of the Criminal Code. 

Main program: nationally recognized correctional programs which include moderate intensity programs, high intensity programs, and hybrid programs. Main programs specifically address risk factors related to offending at intensity levels commensurate to offenders' risk and needs.

Mental health institutional assessment: a type of mental health assessment where the purpose is to assess and delineate significant mental health and/or responsivity issues (e.g., intellectual functioning, cultural considerations, etc.) to be considered in relation to institutional adjustment/security level classification. The assessment will identify those factors that may impact the offender's adaptation and/or integration into a lower security environment.

Pathways Progress Review Meeting: a structured Pathways team meeting that must occur at least once every six months with the aim of discussing offender progress and if needed, set new objectives/goals

Psychological risk assessment: an evaluation of offender risk, needs, responsivity and the manageability of risk, done from a psycho-social perspective, utilizing a variety of scientifically-validated assessment methodologies in an integrated process. It also includes reference to appropriate strategies for the management of risk.

Security Reclassification Scale/Security Reclassification Scale for Women: a research-based tool used to assist in the assessment of the most appropriate level of security for an inmate.

Annex B
Assessment for Decision for a Security Reclassification - Report Outline

Introductory statement/case status

  1. Provide a brief statement of the purpose of the report
  2. Indicate the length of sentence, current offence(s), outstanding charges or appeals, immigration/deportation/extradition status

Security classification actuarial results

Identify when the Security Reclassification Scale or Security Reclassification Scale for Women was completed, the score and overall level of security indicated by the Scale.

Include the following statement: “The inmate has been advised of the steps to have access to the Security Reclassification Scale – Version 2 (SRS-2) and the Security Reclassification Scale for Women – Version 2 (SRSW-2).”. For inmates who are unable to have access to CD 710-6 – Review of Inmate Security Classification, staff must provide the inmate with a hard copy.

In the case of inmates who do not have access to the institutional library (e.g. placement in segregation), staff must provide the inmate with a hard copy of the Security Reclassification Scale Functional Specification.

Institutional adjustment

Consider the following to assess institutional adjustment rating and update any relevant information since the completion of the most recent inmate security level review. For Indigenous offenders, provide an analysis within the context of their Indigenous social history: :

Institutional Adjustment Rating

Based on the individual adjustment factors and any other relevant considerations, assign a rating of either low, moderate or high:

Low - The inmate has demonstrated:

  1. a pattern of satisfactory institutional adjustment; no special management intervention is required
  2. the ability and motivation to interact effectively and responsibly with others, individually and in groups, with little or no supervision
  3. motivation towards self-improvement by actively participating in a Correctional Plan designed to meet their dynamic factors, particularly those relating to facilitating their reintegration into the community

Moderate - The inmate has demonstrated:

  1. some difficulties causing moderate institutional adjustment problems and requiring some management intervention
  2. the potential to interact effectively with others, individually and in moderately structured groups, but needs regular and often direct supervision
  3. an interest and active participation in a Correctional Plan designed to meet their dynamic factors, particularly those which would lead to a transfer to a less structured environment and ultimately, to their reintegration into the community

High - The inmate has demonstrated:

  1. frequent or major difficulties causing serious institutional adjustment problems and requiring significant/constant management intervention
  2. a requirement for a highly structured environment in which individual or group interaction is subject to constant and direct supervision
  3. an uncooperative attitude toward institutional programs and staff and presents a potentially serious management problem within an institution

Escape risk

Consider the following to assess the escape risk rating and update any relevant information since the completion of the most recent inmate security level review. For Indigenous offenders, consider the impact of residential schools, the 60s scoop, the foster care system and/or repeated interventions by government agencies that may have built a distrust of authority and government agencies that may be linked to repeated escapes, UALs and breaches of trust directly linked to their Indigenous social history:

Escape Risk Rating

Based on the preceding escape risk factors and any other relevant considerations, assign a rating of either low, moderate or high:

Low - The inmate:

  1. has no recent serious escape and there are no current indicators of escape potential
  2. has no significant history of breaches

Moderate - The inmate:

  1. has a recent history of escape and/or attempted escapes OR there are current indicator(s) of escape potential
  2. is unlikely to make active efforts to escape but may do so if the opportunity presents itself
  3. presents a definite potential to escape from an institution that has no enclosure

High - The inmate:

  1. has demonstrated a pattern of escapes and/or attempted escapes OR there are current indicator(s) of significant potential to escape OR could threaten the security of the institution in order to facilitate their escape

Public safety risk

Provide an analysis of the inmate’s public safety risk and update any relevant information since the completion of the most recent inmate security level review. For Indigenous offenders, provide an analysis within the context of their Indigenous social history: :

Public Safety Rating

Based on the public safety factors and any other relevant considerations, assign a rating of either low, moderate or high:

Low - The inmate's:

  1. criminal history does not involve violence
  2. criminal history involves violence/sexually-related offence(s), but the inmate has demonstrated significant progress in addressing the dynamic factors which contributed to the criminal behaviour and there are no signs of the high risk situations/offence precursors identified as part of the offence cycle (where it is known)
  3. criminal history involves violence, but the circumstances of the offence are such that the likelihood of reoffending violently is assessed as improbable

Moderate - The inmate's:

  1. criminal history involves violence, but the inmate has demonstrated some progress in addressing those dynamic factors which contributed to the violent behaviour
  2. criminal history involves violence but the inmate has demonstrated a willingness to address the dynamic factors which contributed to the violent behaviour
  3. there are current indicator(s) of moderate risk/concern

High - The inmate's:

  1. criminal history involves violence and the inmate has not demonstrated sufficient progress in addressing those dynamic factors which contributed to the violent behaviour or a willingness to attempt to address such factors
  2. criminal history involves violence and the inmate has not demonstrated a willingness to address the dynamic factors which contributed to the violent behaviour
  3. there are current indicators of high risk/concern

Annex D
Security reclassification scale for women: Version 2

Introduction

The Security Reclassification Scale for Women – Version 2 (SRSW-2) is only applicable to offenders incarcerated in women’s institutions. Once the security reclassification assessment has been saved, it cannot be modified.

1. Correctional Plan : program motivation/progress

Instructions (manually entered by the user and mandatory)

This Item assesses the offender’s motivation in programs designated to address criminogenic factors identified in their Correctional Plan. The user assesses how actively the offender participates in programs. The assessment is based on knowledge of the offender and on file review.

“Limited motivation” is to be selected if the offender refuses to participate in programs to address needs outlined in their Correctional Plan, or if their participation is very sporadic.

“Partial motivation” is to be selected if the offender participates in programming, with adequate attendance. Homework is at least partially (or sometimes) completed, and they sometimes apply lessons.

“Full motivation” is to be selected if the offender is actively participating in their Correctional Plan, completes homework most of the time, and applies their lessons consistently.

Possible Value Score
Limited motivation (+3.20)
Partial motivation (+0.70)
Full motivation (-2.40)

2. Maintains regular positive family contact

Instructions (manually entered by the user and mandatory)

This Item assesses whether the offender has social support through regular positive contact with family members. The assessment is based on knowledge of the offender and file review.

“No, very little positive contact with family” is to be selected if the offender has little to no positive, regular contact from their family.

“Yes, regular positive contact with family” is to be selected if the offender’s family is consistently emotionally supportive and available to them regularly.

Possible Value Score
No, very little positive contact with family (+1.00)
Yes, regular positive contact with family (-0.30)

3. Number of convictions for serious disciplinary offences

Instructions (automatically calculated, cannot be modified by user, and mandatory)

During the review period only count institutional disciplinary offences that resulted in a conviction (not charges) for a serious offence, as per the conviction date on OMS.

Count all the “institutional charges” where the “offence date” is within the review period, the “court finding” is convicted and the “offence category” is serious.

The actual score is displayed under “Raw number of convictions”.

Possible Value Score
None (-1.10)
One or two (+1.90)
Three or more (+4.40)

4. Number of recorded incidents during the review period

Instructions (automatically calculated, cannot be modified by user, and mandatory)

The application performs a count of all “institutional incidents” where the “incident date” is for the period under review regardless of severity, the offender’s role, or whether they resulted in a formal conviction.

The actual score is displayed under “Raw number of recorded incidents”.

Possible Value Score
None (-1.50)
One (+0.40)
Two (+0.75)
Three or more (+3.50)

5. Pay level during the review period

Instructions (automatically calculated, can be modified by the user, and mandatory)

The application reports, in a drop-down list, the most recent pay grade assigned to the offender on the date of the security review. In the event that there is no pay grade recorded for the offender, the application presents to the user a list of valid pay grades to choose from. If the offender is receiving a rate of pay other than those listed, the user has the option of choosing “Other”.

Possible Value Score
Zero pay (+1.00)
Basic allowance (+1.00)
Allowance (+1.00)
Level D pay (+0.70)
Level C pay (-0.30)
Level B pay (-1.10)
Level A pay (-1.10)
Other (0.00)

6. Total number of successful Escorted Temporary Absences (ETAS) during the review period

Instructions (automatically calculated, cannot be modified by the user, and mandatory)

The application tabulates the number of temporary absence permits where the “absence type” is ETA and the offender has successfully completed the ETAs with a recorded outcome of “on time” or “extension.” ETAs granted, for any reason during any part of the review period, will be considered by the scale. The “depart date” or the “required date” must be greater than the start date. The application will count the total number of separate ETAs, not the number of days released on ETA.

The application provides a breakdown of the raw number of successful ETAs during the review period by reason: family related, personal, medical, administrative, and other.

Possible Value Score
None (+1.15)
One to three (+0.70)
Four to eight (-0.85)
Nine or more (-1.40)

7. Transfer to structured intervention unit (SIU)

Instructions (automatically calculated, cannot be modified by the user, and mandatory)

During the review period, all periods where the offender actually spent time in an SIU will be counted. This calculation is based on the number of decisions to approve a transfer to a SIU. When the offender is not approved to be transferred to the SIU or refuses to leave the SIU, this period will not be calculated in the SRS. However, it should be considered in the assessment of the offender’s institutional adjustment in the Assessment for Decision.

Possible Value (not from OMS) Score
None (-1.00)
One or more (+1.00)

8. Ever unlawfully at large (UAL) from work release, temporary absence or community supervision

Instructions (automatic calculated, can be modified by user, and mandatory)

The application automatically checks for any instances of UAL. If an official incident of UAL is found by the application, the field will be populated as “Yes”, and the user will be unable to modify it. If no official incident of UAL is found by the application, the field will be populated as “No” and the user will have the option of overriding the selection to “Yes”.

If the application selects “No”, the user will need to examine the offender’s files to adequately respond to this Item. Because not all UAL will result in formal charges, the user is to count any record of escape from lawful custody on the offender’s personal file. If the offender escaped, they must have been UAL. The user is NOT to count escape attempts – only successful escapes.

Also, if the user is certain that the offender has been UAL but there is no official record, indicate “Yes” and specify the details in the Assessment for Decision. For the purposes of the field, the user is not to include failure to appear or breaches of trust. If these are the only indicators, mark “No.”

Possible Value Score
No (-0.25)
Yes (+1.20)

9. Custody rating scale (CRS) incident history

Instructions (automatically calculated and mandatory)

The application will report the “Incident History score” from the most recent “locked” CRS.

If the score is 0, then “None” will be selected.

If the score is greater than 0, then “Any prior involvement” will be selected.

If no CRS score is available and this is the offender’s first custodial sentence (including provincial) then “None” will be selected, and the user will be allowed to modify the response. If no score is available on OMS, the user must create a ‘proxy’ Incident History score by using the CRS guidelines contained in Annex B of CD 705-7 – Security Classification and Penitentiary Placement.

Possible Value Score
None (-0.95)
Any prior involvement (+1.60)

Final scores and security level rating

OMS calculates the overall score for the SRSW and then provides a recommended security level rating (classification). The Items are weighted as described above, and summed to produce the following ranges of scores and recommended security level ratings.

Recommended Security Level Score Ranges
Maximum +6.03 to +18.05
Medium -3.03 to +6.02
Minimum -10.00 to -3.02
