Employees have been sent a letter of warning after three jail workers were sacked for alleged inappropriate behaviour with inmates.
Two former security specialists for Clayton County Jail have been fired and arrested for allegedly breaching protocol with inmates.
Another former correctional officer is also reported as now facing charges.
As a result of the dismissals and arrests, a memo - obtained by WSBTV2 - was sent to all remaining employees at the prison.

It states the conduct of 'some former employees' while still at Clayton County Sheriff's Office has become a 'trend' which is 'troubling on several different levels'.
The memo continues: "They need to stop for the safety and security of inmates, Sheriff's Office staff and contract employees.
"Any employee conduct which fails to abide by law, policy, procedures, rules and/ or regulation can lead to disciplinary action up to and including termination and/ or arrest and prosecution."
The memo contained photographs of three former employees who have been arrested for inappropriate behaviour with inmates.

One is former security specialist Sergion Williams.
Williams has been accused of taking funds (totalling $500) to bring contraband (lighters, marijuana and cigars) into the Clayton County Jail and also selling Sheriff Office employee meals to jail inmates, his arrest warrant states.
The memo says: "Security specialist Williams was terminated for this incident, some these incidents are caught on jail video.
"An arrest warrant was issued for this case and shall be turned over to the Clayton County District Attorney's Office for review and prosecution."
Another security specialist who used to work at the jail to have been arrested is Mary Moore, who is accused of having 'improper physical contact with another inmate'.

The memo claims she was 'observed on video engaging in a sex act with the jail inmate'.
Former correctional officer Montez Hawkins is also accused of having 'improper physical contact with another inmate'.
Hawkins has denied any wrongdoing, but was sent for an Eyedetect test which reportedly 'revealed deception'.
WSB-TV Channel 2's Tom Jones was told by local residents the jail 'needs to do whatever it needs to do, to clean house'.

"If they went against what they swore into, yeah everybody needs to be held accountable for that," one local said.
Another local resident, Lawrence Scott, reflected on the situation as 'outrageous'.
Resident Birdie Evans resolved: "Inappropriate touching. Inappropriate sexual behaviour. Inappropriate monies being passed. That's criminal. They are criminals."
UNILAD has reached out to Clayton County Jail for comment.
