South Australia Prisons on Lockdown Due to Pay Dispute
Update: 2025-12-11
Description
South Australias justice system grinds to a halt as corrections officers launch a four-day strike, demanding better pay, more staff, and improved safety conditions. The strike, joined by sheriffs officers, crown solicitors, and home detention officers, has left over two thousand prisoners locked down. The PSA criticizes the government for not addressing prison violence and low wages, while the Attorney-General calls the strike irresponsible. Striking staff meet on Friday to decide next steps.
