"Promoting
Our Profession & Caring For Our Colleagues"
Welcome
to the Australian Prison Officers Association website.
The Australian Prison Officers Association has a website
that seeks to
inform potential members, members, interested parties and
stakeholders on
the latest news and affairs concerning our industry and to promote
the public
profile of Prison Officers here in Australia and Internationally.
The
establishment of the
APOA is purely for the promotion of networking opportunities amongst
professionals,
promotion of the profession of Prison Officer, Correctional Officer, Custodial
Officer or people working within the Prison industry and to support the families of those people concerning
matters of
a welfare nature.
The APOA is not a
Union
and does not, in itself, provide Industrial Relations advice.
However, we
do encourage all Prison Officers to participate in trade Union and
Industrial
Associations providing such services.
The APOA is
resourced
and funded by Workers First Australia Pty Ltd which is an
Incorporated Law
Firm specialising in Industrial Law and APOA members are free to
consider
joining the Workers
First Legal Fund.
