Public lecture by Anne Worrall, Professor of Criminology, Keele University, UK and Honorary Professorial Fellow, Law School, UWA.
Drawing on recent research on the occupational cultures of probation workers, Anne Worrall explores the motivations, values and job expectations of present and former workers. Arguing that probation work is often regarded by society as a ‘tainted’ or ‘dirty’ occupation which operates in turbulent political, social and economic conditions, Professor Worrall will consider how probation workers respond to these adverse circumstances to make their work meaningful and fulfilling, or just to cope.
