The board shall adopt regulations and policies permitting the sheriff to extend the limits of the place of confinement of an inmate, as to whom there is reasonable cause to believe he or she will know his or her trust, by authorizing him or her under prescribed conditions, to leave the confines of the county jail unaccompanied by a custodial agent for a prescribed period of time to work at paid employment, while continuing as an inmate in the county jail in which he or she shall be confined except during the hours of employment or any other absence authorized by the board and traveling thereto and therefrom. Inmates shall participate in paid employment at the discretion of the board.
