AL Code § 14-5-30 (2013) What's This?
Section 14-5-30Legislative intent.

It is the intent of the Legislature to require the Department of Corrections to develop, within six months after July 31, 1995, a manual labor work program for all inmates. This should also include the development of community-based manual labor camps. The manual labor required of the inmate shall be as rigorous as the department feels is justified, but shall consist primarily of the removal of litter from the highways of this state, the cleaning of unauthorized dumps and public cemeteries, the growing and raising of food for use by inmates or for sale to reduce the costs of incarceration to the taxpayers, and the cleaning and maintenance of public parks, or municipal, county, or state property. It is the further intent of the Legislature to require the department to assign all inmates who do not have a mental or physical impairment which would prevent them from performing manual labor to the manual labor work program and to develop a work incentive program.
