Jobbeschreibung

Iron County is accepting applications to create a HIRING ROSTER for employment as a CORRECTIONS DEPUTY at the Iron County Jail. This roster can be utilized for a period of 12 months.

Please note this is not a Corrections Deputy position. However, we will utilize this roster to fill positions as they become available.

SALARY: Entry Level/Minimum Starting Wage $26.79 / hour. P.O.S.T certified applicant salary will be based on experience and qualifications/certifications (current policy will allow year for year credit of up to 10 years, into the established pay range, for verifiable corrections experience). A $5,000.00 sign on bonus is available to those applicants who have already obtained the required Utah Certifications (a two (2) year employment commitment is required). Iron County offers a comprehensive Benefit Package: Health, Dental, Vision, LTD, Life and Retirement.

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS INCLUDE:

• BE AT LEAST 19 YEARS OF AGE PRIOR TO GRADUATION FROM P.O.S.T ACADEMY
• BE A U.S. CITIZEN
• HAVE A HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA OR EQUIVALENT
• POSSESS A VALID UTAH DRIVER'S LICENSE IN GOOD STANDING
• PREFERENCE WILL BE GIVEN TO THOSE HOLDING A CURRENT UTAH P.O.S.T. CORRECTIONS OFFICER CERTIFICATE IN GOOD STANDING

APPLICANTS MUST PASS:

• P.O.S.T. PRE-ENTRANCE EXAMINATION WITH A PASSING SCORE OF 70% OR HIGHER

  • *PT test conducted by the Iron County Sheriff's/Corrections Office Administration*
• PRE-EMPLOYMENT DRUG TEST
• BACKGROUND INVESTIGATION
• A 10-WEEK P.O.S.T. CORRECTIONS OFFICER TRAINING PROGRAM

Because there are significant costs to Iron County for Deputies who are uncertified and need to attend the P.O.S.T training academy after hire, Iron County will ask for a two (2) year employment commitment to begin after the required certification is complete. Repayment will be expected for a prorated portion of training costs for months of the agreement not completed.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO:

• MONITORING INMATE SECURITY
• TRANSPORTING INMATES
• PREPARING WRITTEN DOCUMENTATION
• INMATE SEARCHES
• PHYSICALLY RESTRAIN VIOLENT INMATES

Physical agility tests will be conducted at the Iron County Correctional Facility, 2136 N Main, Cedar City, UT 84721. All applicants, who submit the required information prior to the closing date/time and are qualified, will be notified of the testing date and should plan to attend this testing.
