碩士 / 國立中興大學 / 國家政策與公共事務研究所 / 103 / The Coast Guard Administration （CGA） is the government institution in Taiwan in charge of smuggling investigation, illegal border crossing, upholding maritime traffic order, dispute handling, sea rescue, ocean resource preservation, environmental protection and conservation, etc. One of the identities of the members of the CGA reconnaissance brigades is judicial police officers. Their job includes investigations related to drugs, firearms, and agricultural, fisher, and animal husbandry products. In order to keep outstanding reconnaissance brigade personnel and increase morale of brigades at work, a complete and equitable promotion system is required, so that hard-working reconnaissance brigade personnel dedicated to work for national security and social welfare can stay with the CGA and devote themselves to their work.
This study aimed to explore the relationship the equity of promotion perceived by the CGA reconnaissance brigade personnel and their morale at work. Thus, the research variables included perceived equity of promotion and morale at work. There were 3 constructs under perceived equity of promotion: equity of allotment, equity of procedure, and equity of interaction, and 3 constructs under morale at work: organizational identification, group cohesion, and job involvement.
The research subjects of this study were all the personnel of the 20 reconnaissance brigades under the CGA. Besides by reviewing literature, this study also collected some data by performing a questionnaire survey. Then this study analyzed the sample through quantification the data and made inferences based on the results. A total of 384 questionnaires were issued. After discarding the questionnaires with too many missing values and the invalid ones from the retrieved questionnaires, 276 valid ones were left. The valid response rate was 72%. SPSS, a statistical analysis software package, was used to obtain descriptive statistics and perform statistical analyses such as independent sample t-test, ANOVA, correlation analysis, and regression analysis. The findings are summarized below:
1. The research subjects tended to disagree with the equity of promotion.
2. The research subjects tended to agree with the morale at work.
3. Among the personal attributes, only marital status was significantly related to the construct of equity of allotment. As for the constructs of morale at work, none of them was significantly related to the personal attributes.
4. There was a positive relationship between the perceived equity of promotion and the morale at work.
5. The prediction power of the overall “perceived equity of promotion” for the overall “morale at work” was 24.6%, meaning that higher perceived equity of promotion could lead to higher morale at work.
Based on the research findings above, this study proposed some suggestions to the CGA for them to consider while making related policies. These suggestions can also be used as references for future researchers when studying issues in relation to the promotion system of the CGA and the morale of its personnel.
