About this file
This is an Access and Security Requirements exhibit for detention facility contractors working with the County of Santa Clara's Department of Correction in California. The document establishes comprehensive security protocols and behavioral expectations for all contractor employees entering County custody facilities. Contractors must comply with facility policies governing tool control and personnel management. The exhibit prohibits bringing firearms, explosives, alcoholic beverages, narcotics, controlled substances, and marijuana into facilities, with violations constituting criminal offenses subject to arrest. Persons under the influence of alcohol or drugs are barred from facility entry. Prohibited items include umbrellas, pocketknives, scissors, metal nail files, and other potential weapons, except job-related tools. Contractors must proceed directly to designated work areas and are prohibited from loitering in unauthorized areas, which may result in security clearance revocation and facility escort-out.
All contractor employees are strictly forbidden from communicating with, giving items to, taking items from, loaning to, exchanging with, borrowing from, doing favors for, or conducting business transactions with inmates without prior custody staff supervisor approval. The facility maintains a no-hostage policy prioritizing safe release through all means except providing weapons or additional hostages to hostage takers. Facility security takes absolute precedence over work completion efficiency, and all workers must immediately comply with custody staff directives without argument or face security clearance revocation. Tobacco products and smoking are prohibited throughout all facilities and perimeter fence boundaries. Tools must be inventoried before entry and at the end of each workday, with workers required to bring only necessary tools and remove them to secured areas daily. Work areas must be thoroughly cleaned after each work session to prevent contraband breaches, and extreme care must be exercised to avoid leaving materials that could be weaponized by inmates.

ACCESS AND SECURITY REQUIREMENTS FOR DETENTION FACILITIES
GENERAL:
Contractor’s Employee shall abide by and are subject to all policies that govern the control of tools and personnel working at County detention facilities. These Facilities are NO HOSTAGE areas.
1. Bringing Firearms, explosives, alcoholic beverages, narcotics, or a controlled substance, including marijuana, into a custody facility is a crime, and cause for arrest.
2. Persons under the influence of alcoholic beverages or drugs will not be allowed to enter any custody facility and may be subject to arrest.
3. Umbrellas, pocketknives, scissors, metal nail files, or other objects that could be used as weapons are not allowed within any facility (other than job tools related to the function being undertaken).
4. Persons entering any custody facility shall not give anything to any inmate, nor will they take anything from any inmate without prior approval from a custody staff supervisor.
5. Department of Correction Facilities are no smoking areas. Workers are not to bring any tobacco products into any facility. No smoking is permitted within any building or within the perimeter fence boundaries.
6. Persons entering any custody facility shall not loan, exchange, borrow, do favors for, or enter into any business transactions with any inmate. Do not communicate with any inmate.
7. Contractors and their employees will proceed directly to their designated work areas. Those found loitering in any unauthorized area may be escorted from the facility and may have their security clearance revoked.
8. No Hostage Policy: For everyone’s safety, we will not allow any inmate to escape in exchange for the release of a hostage. All means will be utilized to affect a safe release, except giving hostage takers weapons, additional hostages, or allowing them to escape.
9. Facility security is our first priority. Security concerns must take precedence over work completion efficiency if that security is threatened.
10. Custody staff is responsible for the security of the facility. If directed by a staff member to take any action (leave area, secure tools, wait, etc.) all workers shall comply immediately without argument, non-compliance may result in revocation of their security clearance.
11. Tools must be inventoried prior to entry and again at completion of each day. Bring in only the tools you require to accomplish the task. It is essential that planning includes anticipation of needs to avoid unnecessary trip(s) in and out of the facility. Tools must be removed after each workday to a secured area.
12. Extreme care must be exercised to avoid leaving any materials in security areas that can be used as a weapon by inmates. Work areas must be cleaned after every work session to avoid contraband security breaches.
