Next, relying on a combination of research interviews, quantitative data, and literature, contributors present an international comparative review of Canada's evolving criminal record legislation; the promotive features of employment; the complex constraints and stigma former prisoners encounter as they seek employment; and the individual and societal benefits of assisting former prisoners attain \"gainful\" employment. A main theme throughout is the interrelationship between employment and other central conditions necessary for safety and sustenance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book offers suggestions for criminal record policy amendments and new reintegration practices that would assist individuals in the search for employment.
