Re: Paperwork needed for work release

The inmate is supposed to apply for that himself. He will be assigned a counselor in jail (usually) and they will help him get work release. Plus, his employer has to be willing to transfer him to and from his job or he won't get work release. He needs to investigate the work release program himself. But you should know that there are many reasons why he may not be accepted for work release; such as other pending criminal charges against him, unpaid fines, etc.
