Abstract
ABSTRACT In the current article, we explore how divisions in the Correctional Officer (CO) workspace, according to new officers, contribute to workplace culture(s). We analyzed semi‐structured interviews with COs ( n = 72), who had approximately 1 year of occupational tenure in Canadian federal penitentiaries, to nuance how COs interpret diversities in their relationships with colleagues and how, in turn, these relationships shape the workplace culture. Findings reveal social dynamics and peer groups create a stressful organizational culture for COs, particularly new COs or those who exhibit an unsatisfactory response to an incident. However, new COs feel their stress is tempered through social inclusion by other junior COs with less occupational tenure or by inclusion by the more senior officers. Navigating social relationships with colleagues remains a significant source of stress for COs, with several key contributing factors, such as feeling excluded by colleagues, the pervasive nature of gossip, as well as differences between training and realities of CO work, and attitudes toward occupational tenure. Implications of workplace culture are discussed, with practical considerations, including training, to create a more inclusive and less stressful CO workspace.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
