隨著婦女就業情形的普遍，兩性議題也愈顯得重要，欲落實兩性平權，法律是最根本之道，從近年政府制定「兩性工作平等法」及「性別平等教育法」對於推進兩性平權，均具有劃時代的意義。所謂「玻璃天花板效應」（glass ceiling effect），就是一種不易被察覺的、人為的或組織的偏差所造成的無形阻礙，使得女性在事業生涯方面，無法獲得與男性公平競爭的機會。本研究藉由對玻璃天花板、陞遷、性別角色等相關理論與實務之檢視，對我國女性警官陞遷潛藏之問題進行探討，期能依據研究結果，提出一些建議，以供女性警官個人及有關機關參考。 在研究方法方面，本研究係採用問卷調查法為主，以我國女性警官為普測對象，取得回收有效問卷525份。研究問卷內容包含影響陞遷之「社會心理」構面、「歧視偏差」構面、「系統結構」構面與「陞遷發展」構面及女性警官個人基本資料等量表。問卷調查所得資料運用電腦統計套裝軟體SPSS for Windows 10.0版，以描述性統計分析、t考驗、單因子變異數分析及Pearson積差相關等統計分析方法進行資料處理： 本研究經由實證分析之後，歸納結論如下： 一、就各構面之認知程度而言：其同意程度依次為影響陞遷之「社會心理」構面，其次是「陞遷發展」構面，再次是「歧視偏差」構面，最後為「系統結構」構面。 二、就各構面之認知差異情形而言：在「社會心理」構面上，因年齡、婚姻、子女數、教育程度、警官年資、職務官階、服務單位、有無進修、現任職位及代理主管的不同而有顯著差異存在；在「歧視偏差」構面上，因婚姻、職務官階、工作內容、現任職位及代理主管的不同而有顯著差異存在；在「系統結構」構面上，因工作照顧、教育程度、職務官階、有無進修及代理主管的不同而有顯著差異存在；在「陞遷發展」構面上，因有無進修、現任職位及代理主管的不同而有顯著差異存在。 三、就各構面之相關分析而言：本研究所探討的四個構面的關連非常強，不論是整體或是其各個的因素之間均達顯著水準的正相關。 / With the rise of female employment rate in workplace, gender issues have been of higher importance in recent years.

台灣女性勞動參與率逐年提高，越來越多的女性勞動力進入就業市場，然而，女性晉升至中高階層職位之人數並無明顯增加。顯然女性的職涯發展似乎受到一定程度的限制，此限制即為玻璃天花板現象。玻璃天花板現象存在於各行各業中，但於警界之程度更為嚴重。此現象之原因乃警界人為與體制上的排除女警官人數，導致整個警界中的女性人數稀少，更遑論通往高階之女性所遇之玻璃天花板現象更甚一般企業或公務體系人員。因此本研究透過質性訪談方式，藉此試圖探討警政中、高層女性所占比例極低的原因何在，其中人為或非人為因素為何？ 　　本研究發現警界升遷制度隱性侷限女警升遷發展，以績效導向為主導致功獎多寡牽制著積分排名順序，而主管評分比重過高亦會影響女警官升遷；再者由於警察組織性別化的工作指派，在偏好男性的外勤工作能夠快速與大量的累積分數之下，女警官敘獎機會較少，相對不容易累積積分；此外警界必須運用交際應酬的手段維繫良好的人際關係，但女警官不擅進入男性應酬圈，男性網絡之官場文化間接造影響女警官們的升遷發展；最後女性被賦予養兒育女之母職天性，家庭責任之重擔落在女性身上，一但女警官走入婚姻，即必須在工作與家庭上做取捨，工作與家庭實為難以兼顧。 　　因此建議國家應放寬警大入學名額的性別設限並推動國家照顧工作；對於警界之職務分派勿侷限性別，重視女警人才，並且減少組織內外勤工作差異，再者建議主官建立公平的考核原則，破除性別刻板印象之成見，以及建立兩性平等的教育訓練；建議女警官破除自我設限的迷思，並強化女警官之人際網絡；以及女警官人力資本之維持。 / The female labor participation rate has gradually increased in Taiwan, more and more Female labor force has been entered the labor market. However, the number of female senior positions who is not increases significantly. Women's career advancement has seemed to be limited to a certain extent; this restriction shall be the glass ceiling. The glass ceiling exists in all walks of life; particularly the police are more serious than the general business and public service system. The reason is artificial and institutional exclusion, not to mention the number of women with the senior positions. Therefore, this study through qualitative interviews so as to explore the low proportion of women in senior positions. The study found that promotion system limited women's career advancement, the performance-oriented approach the award amount in order to contain the standings, while the chief rates with a high proportion will also affect female police officer promotion; Furthermore, due to the gender-based assignment of work in police organizations, female police officers award fewer opportunities that is not easy to accumulate points; In addition to maintain good interpersonal relationships in police, female police officers is hard to enter the male entertainment circle; the last is that women has the nature of motherhood, so family responsibilities falls on women which must be choice between work and family. The government should be relax the gender-based retractions of Central Police University and to promote the care work of the state; the Police should not limit the duties assigned in gender and to value the talent of female police officers ,also it should reduce the differences in the police work of the organization .Moreover the chief should set the fair principal on assessment, and break the gender stereotypes with the prejudices. Also it should be establish the gender equality in education and training; finally suggesting that female police officers should get rid of the myth of self-handicapping, and to strengthen the interpersonal networks of female police officers; as well as the maintenance of female police officers in human capital.
