What is Electronic Monitoring at Serco?
Electronic Monitoring uses advanced technology systems and specialist devices, often called ankle monitors or electronic tags, to help the justice system manage individuals safely in the community instead of in prison — with a deep commitment to dignity and respect for every person involved.
It works by:
Our Field Monitoring Officers (FMOs) travel in crews to install, maintain and remove these monitoring devices, working directly with individuals in their homes.
It works by:
- Using devices worn on the ankle (and sometimes the wrist)
- Tracking location and movement through advanced GPS and radio frequency (RF) technology
- Enforcing court or probation conditions such as curfews, exclusion zones and movement restrictions
- Supporting rehabilitation while protecting public safety
- Reducing pressure on the prison system
