These procedures shall include identification measures, sign-in requirements, escort requirements and other such measures related to the security of the institution.
49(2) Volunteers screened and cleared by the department may not require constant staff presence.

Such orientation would include such issues as off-limits areas, escort requirements, prohibition against fraternization with inmates, identification of a contact person for problems or questions, explanation of contraband policy, explanation of search procedures, explanation of identification procedures, and other such issues that impact security.
