Previous studies consistently showed that postrelease employment was a major contributing factor for recidivism among ex-offenders, but the studies lacked specific information about the type of employment found by ex-offenders. The main focus of this 5-year follow-up study was to analyze which industrial sectors would likely employ ex-offenders. This study contained data from 6,561 released offenders who represented approximately 43% of 15,184 offenders released from the Indiana Department of Correction correctional facilities throughout 2005. Additionally, the Indiana Department of Workforce Development provided crucial employment-related information for the present researchers to examine the industrial sectors that employed these ex-offenders. Results of this study showed that 62.4% (n = 4,096) were employed in a variety of sectors for at least one quarter in any given year during the study period of 2005 to 2009. By using the North American Industry Classification System to categorize these jobs, this study found the primary sectors that employed ex-offenders were related to "administrative support, waste management and remediation services," "accommodation and food services," "manufacturing," "construction," "retail trade," or "health care and social assistance." Also, a significant number of ex-offenders found employment in "temporary help services." The authors discuss the implications for correctional education programs.
