work release

     

In prison systems, work release programs allow a prisoner who is sufficiently truste or can be sufficiently monitored leave confinement to continue working at his or her current place of employment, returning to prison when his/her shift is complete. The concept was introduced in the state of Wisconsin in 1913 under the Huber Law program, which continues to be the casual name of Wisconsin's work release program presently .
