The Home Office does not publish numbers of staff employed by itsservice providers at immigration removal centres as this could compromise the security of their facilities.

The percentage of female detainee custody officers (DCOs) employed at Yarl’s Wood IRC by Serco for the years 2010 to 2014 is in the table below.

Year Percentage of female DCOs
2010 46%
