About us
Welcome to the official LinkedIn page of the Singapore Prison Service. The Singapore Prison Service (SPS), is a uniformed organization institutionalized in 1946, under the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA). From performing a custodial function to becoming a leading correctional agency with a stellar safety and security track record, SPS has progressed and transformed over the decades to become a leader in corrections, adopting an evidence-informed approach in rehabilitating inmates. In partnership and collaboration with Social Service Agencies (SSAs), Home Team Departments (HTDs) and the community, SPS has achieved low and stable recidivism rate over the years. SPS takes pride in fulfilling its tagline of ‘Rehab, Renew, Restart’. The tagline emphasizes the commitment of SPS and its staff to rehabilitate inmates who desire to change, so that they can renew and restart their lives for the better. SPS has been recognized as one of Singapore’s Best Employers – our staff, known as Captains of Lives, have been identified as highly engaged individuals. As Captains of Lives, we inspire everyone, at every chance, towards a society without re-offending.
