Job Description

Aramark is a global leader in food services, facilities management, and uniform services, operating across 15 countries and serving millions of guests every day. Rooted deeply in service, Aramark places a strong emphasis on creating great experiences for its clients, employees, and communities. The company believes that every employee should have equal employment opportunities and values diversity and inclusivity across all its operations. As a cornerstone of their mission, Aramark commits to fostering a workplace where employees can develop their talents, fuel their passions, and advance professionally while making positive contributions to society and the environment. This commitment creates a dynamic and supportive work culture that is focused on sustainability, community engagement, and employee well-being.

Within this innovative company, the role of a Corrections Oversight Worker is pivotal to maintaining the highest standards in food preparation and sanitation within correctional facilities. This position involves supervising inmate workers to ensure that meals are prepared according to strict production plans and safety standards. The role requires an individual who can efficiently coordinate tasks, coach inmates on proper food handling and cooking procedures, and uphold sanitation practices that comply with company and regulatory standards such as HACCP. The Corrections Oversight Worker plays a critical part in ensuring meal services are timely, efficient, and meet all dietary requirements, including special diets. By maintaining accurate documentation such as production and temperature logs, this professional safeguards food quality and safety.

More than just supervising, this role demands leadership in training and managing inmate workers, making certain that food service operations run smoothly and securely. Security protocols are a top priority since the kitchen operates within a correctional environment. The Corrections Oversight Worker must adhere to facility security policies, manage secure storage of tools and equipment, and maintain strict control over facility keys. Additionally, the role involves logistical tasks such as conducting inventories, requisitioning food orders, and scheduling work and sanitation efforts. Physical stamina is necessary as the job includes activities like lifting, bending, pushing, pulling, and standing for long periods, often requiring personal protective equipment.

By joining Aramark in this position, employees become part of an organization committed to the highest levels of quality, safety, and service excellence. The company’s values of unity, respect, and purposeful action are embedded in everyday tasks, offering rewarding career growth opportunities within a supportive and professional environment. This role is suited for someone who is not only detail-oriented and responsible but also motivated to contribute positively within the corrections environment. Employment with Aramark offers the chance to enhance one's skills, work independently with limited supervision, and help uphold food safety standards in a crucial operational setting. As part of a global company with strong ethics and community focus, this position embodies the mission to do great things for employees, partners, communities, and the planet alike.
