Editing Chaplain (section)

===Industrial chaplains===

====Law and police====
Law enforcement or police chaplains work with and as part of local, regional, county, state, and national or federal law enforcement and provide a variety of services within the law enforcement community. They should not be confused with prison chaplains, whose primary ministry is to those who are incarcerated either awaiting trial or after conviction. The role of the law enforcement chaplain deals primarily with law enforcement personnel and agencies. The chaplain responds to these unique needs and challenges with religious guidance, reassuring and trustworthy presence, resources and counseling services. The law enforcement chaplain offers support to law enforcement officers, administrators, support staff, victims and their families, and occasionally even the families of accused or convicted offenders. Law enforcement chaplaincy is a ministry of presence and must have the proper training if they are working with law enforcement officers. Some ministries such as Chaplain Fellowship Ministries requires LEO chaplains to be certified in Public Safety Chaplaincy before becoming certified as a LEO chaplain. Most chaplains are uniformed and some may have a rank. They will always wear distinguishing insignia or markings to denote their chaplain rather than lawman status.

====Fire departments====
Chaplains working with fire departments provide the same kind of support as do chaplains working with law enforcement agencies, and sometimes face even greater danger working with the wounded in often very dangerous surroundings.

At the scene of the [[September 11 attacks]] on the [[World Trade Center (1973–2001)|World Trade Center]] in [[New York City]], for example, [[New York City Fire Department]] chaplain [[Mychal Judge]] was killed by flying debris from the [[List of tenants in Two World Trade Center|South Tower]] when he re-entered the lobby of the [[List of tenants in One World Trade Center|North Tower]] of the World Trade Center, shortly after administering last rites to a wounded firefighter.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2002/09/27/nyregion/killed-on-9-11-fire-chaplain-becomes-larger-than-life.html?pagewanted=1|title=Killed on 9/11, Fire Chaplain Becomes Larger Than Life|date=September 27, 2002|newspaper=The New York Times|last1=Wakin|first1=Daniel J.}}</ref>

====Labor====

Many workplace chaplains (commonly called industrial chaplains) are sponsored by labor unions, including in some cases chaplains for police and firefighters. The [[United Auto Workers]] Union (UAW) sponsors a chaplaincy program for all of its local unions.<ref>{{Cite web | url=https://uaw.org/pro-member-the-uaw-chaplaincy-program/ | title=PRO-Member: The UAW Chaplaincy Program| date=2015-05-15}}</ref> In New York City, the [[International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers|Electricians Union]] (IBEW Local 3) has affiliated [[Catholic]], [[Episcopal Church (United States)|Episcopalian]], [[Greek Orthodox]] and [[Masonic]] organizations with chaplains.<ref>{{Cite web | url=https://local3ibew.org/club-directory | title=Club Directory}}</ref>

Union chaplains are often viewed as advantageous as they are accountable to the employees and not corporate management.

==== Ports ====

In many ports, particularly in North America and Europe, there are chaplaincy organizations providing religious and welfare services to [[Sailor|seafarers]] while they are in port.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Kahveci |first=Erol |date=2010 |title=Port-based welfare workers for seafarers |url=https://www.mnwb.org/app/uploads/2022/09/Port-based_Welfare_Workers.pdf |publisher=ITF Seafarers' Trust}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Zuidema |first1=Jason |last2=Walker |first2=Kevin |date=Aug 19, 2020 |title=Welcoming the Orphans of Globalization: The Case for Seafarers' Ministry |url=https://www.erudit.org/en/journals/scesprit/2020-v72-n3-scesprit05465/1071159ar/ |journal=Science et Esprit |volume=72 |issue=3 |pages=311–324 |doi=10.7202/1071159ar |via=Érudit|url-access=subscription }}</ref> This ministry typically takes the form of going aboard ships to talk with seafarers, maintaining centers near the port with chapels, spaces for relaxation, and internet, and providing transportation to seafarers on [[shore leave]].<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Cadge |first1=Wendy |last2=Skaggs |first2=Michael |date=13 June 2018 |title=Humanizing Agents of Modern Capitalism?

Some businesses, large or small, employ chaplains for their staff or clientele. Services provided may include employee assistance and counseling services; wellness seminars; conflict management and mediation; leadership and management development; and trauma/serious incident response.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.chaplainswithoutborders.org/about-us/|title=About Us|url-status=usurped|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141022175718/http://www.chaplainswithoutborders.org/about-us/|archive-date=October 22, 2014|df=mdy-all}}</ref> In 2007, 4,000 corporate chaplains were reported to be working in the U.S.,<ref>The Economist (August 25, 2007, p 64).</ref> with the majority being employees of specialist chaplaincy companies such as Marketplace Chaplains USA<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://mchapusa.com/|title=Marketplace Chaplains &#124; Workplace Chaplains &#124; Chaplain|website=Marketplace Chaplains}}</ref> and Corporate Chaplains of America.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://chaplain.org/|title=Workplace Chaplain Network|website=Corporate Chaplains of America}}</ref> In 2024, Corporate Chaplains of America reported serving over 2,000 workplace locations with 400 chaplains serving over 1,000,000 employees and their family members in the United States and Canada. 2014, Marketplace Chaplains USA reported employing over 2,800 chaplains in 44 states and over 960 cities.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://mchapusa.com/about-us|title=Corporate Chaplaincy Service Employee Wellness Program : Marketplace Chaplains|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140812172933/http://mchapusa.com/about-us|archive-date=August 12, 2014|df=mdy-all}}</ref> The organization added an international arm in 2006; Marketplace Chaplains International serves Canada, the U.K., Mexico and Puerto Rico.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.marketplaceministries.com/chaplainsinternational-whatwedo.aspx |title=Marketplace Ministries INC |access-date=2014-07-19 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://archive.today/20140725230633/http://www.marketplaceministries.com/chaplainsinternational-whatwedo.aspx |archive-date=July 25, 2014 |df=mdy }}</ref> Capellania Empresarial<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.capellania.com.py/index.html |title=Capellania Empresarial |access-date=2009-12-21 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100130183145/http://www.capellania.com.py/index.html |archive-date=January 30, 2010 |df=mdy }}</ref> provides corporate chaplaincy services in Paraguay.
