Inside our Centre Unit & Internal Patrol Officers carry cuffs, cut down knife, radio, CPR mask & First aid pouch with gloves. Perimeter Security armed with handguns & patrol in an Armoured Vehicle (Crew-cab SUV). K-9 Units carry everything, sidearms, longarms, gas gun, chem/agents & a hairy 4 legged razorblade!!!!!!!

I work at a medium sized jail in Gainesville Fl and we carry cuffs, OC, radios w/ man down, plus we can use tasers and pepperball if needed. Outside the jail we are armed with Glock 40s for transports and court. The entire jail is certified to use the OC and tasers and about 1/3 of the staff can use the pepperball guns. Our cert Team also has access to less-leathal devices (bean bag, rubber pellets ect). Good Luck

We have cuffs, radio, small flashlight, and gloves... that's about it allowed. Used to have spray but that got taken away long ago.

Arizona allows Officers to carry cuffs, spray, PPE kit, small flashlight, and that's about it.

We minimally carry cuff(s), pepper-spray, radio and key-set. A few guys will carry a flashlight on them. Tazers are kept in all of the control rooms and Sgts’ offices, which doesn’t do you much good if you’re on the floor or in the booking area.

cuffs and radio.in the sgt's office we have a taser but only supervisors are allowed to use it on some1

In my facility you have your instincts for defense. OC, cuffs, batons, riot shotguns or S&W's is issued only in emergencies to select Officers. We are allowed to have a flashlight, a radio, gloves and our keys. That's it.

I been retired 15 years now, but we had our whistle, pen and a prayer and as far as I know thats what they still have in NJ. They now wear a vest since Officer Fred Baker was shanked and killed in the line of duty shortly after I retired.

Still the same thing. They took the big flashlights and replaced them with disposable ones.

At our facility, our Dorm Officers carry a telephone and radio.  Oh let me not forget about the ink pen to write things down.  Segregation officers, the same.  This is in Kentucky.

all the corrections officer need to carry handcuffs?

Inside: Cuffs

Outside: Cuffs, O.C., Glock 17, ASP

Inside the institution, officers carry nothing but some cuffs, a whistle and hopefully , a brain...lol.  Supervisors carry OC inside.  On transportation runs we carry a .38 and on runs where we use the "Big Blue" bus, we have a Remington 870 shotgun on board.

in my department i carry a radio, cuffs, OC pepper spray, a flashlight of my choice and glove case. also in the doorms i have a scanner that we call a PIPE , which looks almost like a mini baton and can be used as such, which i use to scan the emergency doors on each floor as i do my rounds. For transport, hospital duty and court duty i carry everything above but also carry a Smith&Wesson .40cal M&P semi-automactic pistol, 21 inch asp staight baton, extra set of full restraints, fexi cuffs and my cell phone. we are switching over from the straight baton to the ASP expandable baton sometime this year.

Inside,a baton,pepper spray,cuffs,radio,non latex gloves,a good strong pen, and the will to get out alive!...Outside,S&W MP 40,just in case I meet an inmate that wants to settle the score.. CO-1, INMATE-0.

Inside we carry oc,flashlight,glove pouch,key holder and a radio.On the outside add a holster,magazine holder and a baton.
