Policewoman employ started in the early 20 centuries, but the number of policewomen has been limited for a long time, and policewomen’s working environments are also restricted in many ways. As gender equalitarianism is awaken, women’s movement enhances, and women and children’s safety is concern day by day, policewomen in the police organizations are pop-out gradually (Huang Tsuiwen, 2004 ). Under international trends, not only the number of policewomen in our country will rise large, but also more and more policewomen have to be assigned to field works in basic units. On the other hand, we must notice this problem that most policewomen engaged in civil works not concerned in the past time, but as the number of policewomen increases, the number of policewomen assigned to field police stations is increasing, and we must observe and research the adaption of policemen and policewomen carefully, the degree people can accept, and the effects on working efficiency and cultures in police organizations. Due to differences between the ways policewomen worked in police stations and the ways policemen did, and most policewomen engaged in being on duty and internal paper works, to realize if policewomen could engage in the same works as policemen, if they could perform independent duties as policemen, and problems they would face when working in field police stations, under the limiting factors of manpower, resources, and time, in this research we design interview outlines with samples of field policewomen in the police stations of the police bureau writer serves in, extract focuses of correlate issues from in-depth interviews by purposing sampling, and analyze correlate problems to resolve issues about performing duties in police stations after policewomen increase. In this research we realize working problems by in-depth interview and semi-structured interview outlines on space designs, duty equipments, duty planning, family life, training, and future perspectives, and in-depth interview 9 policewomen in the police stations of the Miaoli Police Bureau under the limiting factors of manpower, resources, and time, findings are: due to differences of physical fitness and congenital body shapes of police women, it creates burdens of stamina and less identification to police organizations to facing all kinds of duties in 24-hour shifts. It effects wills that policewomen perform duties and future-perspectives that they devote to duties in police stations because neither space-design nor duty-equipment fits requirements of policewomen and of family factors. Accordingly in this research we propose: 1. On duty planning: (1) Planning direct logical duty hours and reasonable of-duty system. (2) 8-hour static duty goes on the high priority during pregnancy. (3) Duty models of different kinds and on different hours should be properly adjusted. 2. On space designs and training equipments: (1) Reenforcing training of duty-performing techniques and hardiness when transacting cases. i. Reenforcing practical training and practices. ii. Reenforcing duty-performing techniques and self-defense sense. iii. Reenforcing hardiness training. iv. Reenforcing law backgrounds and ability to communicate with people. (2) Reenforcing body-shape training. (3) Improving and filling up on-hand equipments in order to promote security of policewomen on duty. (4) Improving the environments of working, preparing spaces, and dormitory in police stations. 3. On family life: (1) Building day and night baby-care and the cooperative system with nursing home. (2) Holding frequent activities between police and their family members to improve emotional communications and eliminate misdoubts. 4. On future development of policewomen’s duties: (1) It’s necessary to retain limiting sexual proportion. (2) For fill to casting system of body shape.
