The Maintenance Worker Supervisor (Maintenance Worker Foreman) is responsible for maintaining and repairing institution buildings and structures while supervising inmate workers. The role includes training inmate workers in construction, repair, maintenance, and renovation work involving buildings, related structures, grounds, fixtures, and utilities.

Appointment is subject to pre-employment screening, including an interview, urinalysis, physical, background investigation, NCIC and credit checks, and, for applicants not currently working in an institution, a qualification inquiry regarding misdemeanor domestic-violence convictions.
