| Clerical and Paralegal Capacity | |
|---|---|
| How it's measured | Percent of staff who are solely in clerical, paralegal, or general support positions |
| Data elements | 1. Number of total staff at start of year 2. Number of clerical/paralegal/support staff at start of year |
| Frequency | Annually |
| Desired direction | Increase in percent in support positions |
| Rationale for measuring this indicator | Prosecutors are responsible for a large amount of administrative work, much of which can be completed by other staff. Providing sufficient clerical and paralegal staff allows prosecutors to focus on other substantive duties, increasing efficiency and job performance. |
