Title: Probation Workers and their Occupational Cultures Summary: This report presents key findings from a study of probation cultures funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC grant reference: RES-000-22-3979) and facilitated by the Probation Chiefs Association (PCA)1. The study began in April 2010 and its main aims were to identify some of the characteristics of contemporary probation cultures and to examine how probation workers construct their occupational identities. During the course of the fieldwork we interviewed sixty former and current probation workers across England and Wales and we gratefully acknowledge their contribution to this work. We have anonymised the participants in the text that follows, using four acronyms: (1) ‘PWs’ are current probation service officers, probation officers and senior probation officers (n = 26); (2) ‘TPOs’ are trainee probation officers (n = 10); (3) ‘COs’ are chief officer grades, namely assistant chief officers and chief executive officers (n = 16); and (4) ‘FPWs’ are former and retired probation workers (n = 8).
