CORRECTION defined:
• A branch of the Criminal Justice System concerned with the custody, supervision and
rehabilitation of criminal offenders.
• It is that field of criminal justice administration which utilizes the body of knowledge and
practices of the government and the society in general involving the processes of handling
individuals who have been convicted of offenses for purposes of crime prevention and control.
• It is the study of jail/prison management and administration as well as the rehabilitation and
reformation of criminals.
• It is a generic term that includes all government agencies, facilities, programs, procedures,
personnel, and techniques concerned with the investigation, intake, custody, confinement,
supervision, or treatment of alleged offenders.
Correction as one of the pillars of Criminal Justice System is considered as the weakest pillar. This is
because of its failure to deter individuals in committing crimes as well as the reformation of inmates. This
is evident in the increasing number of inmates in jails or prisons. Hence, the need of prison management
is necessary to rehabilitate inmates and transform them to become law-abiding citizens after their release.
Correction is the fourth pillar of the criminal justice system. This pillar takes over once the accused, after
having been found guilty, is meted out the penalty for the crime he committed. He can apply for probation
or he could be turned over to a non-institutional or institutional agency or facility for custodial treatment
and rehabilitation. The offender could avail of the benefits of parole or executive clemency once he has
served the minimum period of his sentence.
When the penalty is imprisonment, the sentence is carried out either in the municipal, provincial or
national penitentiary depending on the length of the sentence meted out.
