Question

Which model allows private companies to set up manufacturing units on prison grounds or purchase goods made by inmates in shops owned and operated by the corrections department

Answer 1

Answer:

private prison enterprise

Explanation:

A public jail is not a profit-generating enterprise. The eventual objective is to house jailed prisoners in an effort to rehabilitate them or remove them from the streets. A private jail, on the other hand, is administered by a business. That corporation’s final purpose is to profit from everything they deal in.

In order to generate money as a private jail, the firm gets into a contract with the government. This contract should indicate the basis for payment to the company. It might be based on the size of the jail, based on a monthly or annual predetermined sum, or in most situations, it is paid depending on the number of convicts that the prison holds.

As of 2019, there are around 116,000 inmates detained in private prisons, which constitutes 8 percent of the overall federal and state prison population.

Many of these jails save the government money, but others actually cost more per prisoner than a public institution would cost.
