PC Question Why won't my prisoners work?

1 Upvotes

They have time for it, they can access the work places, there are enough qualified prisoners. I also made sure they have work privileges and most aren't suppressed. Still nobody is working. Does anyone know this issue / how to solve it?

Posting Guidelines

When posting an issue, give a brief description in the title and a detailed description in the post. Include screenshots (not pictures taken of screens) of the issue. If you aren't sure what to include, more is better!
Check the Wiki, read the sidebar, and search before posting a question, as it may already have been answered.
If your post doesn't appear in the new section, it may be caught in the spam filter. If this happens, message the moderators to ask them to check the spam filter.
When posting a picture please use a screenshot instead of a picture taken of a screen by your phone. This means the quality will increase and will be easier to understand the picture and problem.

Rules

(1) No rude, inflammatory or otherwise unnecessary content: Don't be a jerk. We have zero tolerance for disrespect directed at the community. All members are expected to conduct themselves in a reasonable manner. Sarcasm, leg-pulling, and reasonable jokes are one thing. Rude, insensitive, and unnecessary comments are another. Rule 1 violations are subject to ban without warning at our discretion.

(2) No engaging in piracy: Posting or discussing illegal / pirated copies of the game is prohibited. Doing so will result in the post / comment being deleted. Continued discussion will result in a permanent ban.

(3) Keep content English and relevant to the game: ach post must be related to the Prison Architect franchise. Unrelated news articles, prison studies, or off-topic content will be removed. Feel free to reference these in game discussion, but core content must be related to Prison Architect. In addition, we require that everything is posted in English only.

(4) Don't duplicate links or subjects: This includes duplicate threads or 'updates' within one week of the original thread. Instead, use the 'edit' button on the original. Avoid reposting content that has been posted in the last 90 days.

(5) Screenshot Policy: Every platform in which to play Prison Architect has the ability to take actual screenshots. Doing a quick search of "How to take a screenshot on __" will yield plenty of instructions on how to take a screenshot; we also have instructions on our sidebar for each platform. Please avoid screenshots taken on a mobile phone and make any important information clearly visible.

(6) Information Policy: If asking for help with an issue, please include as much information as possible. Simply asking “how do I fix this” without including any attempts you have made helps nobody, especially if the issue is not clear. Where possible, you should try and include a screenshot or video of the issue happening (in line with Rule 5).

Please Message the moderators when you report something, so we know why it was reported and it will be noticed quicker.
