自法警實證研究反思國家考試與勤務運作的性平議題
李有容、黃榮護
《摘要》
本文試圖透過檢視四等法警在分定男女錄取名額上的變化,透過訪談了解國家考試與勤務運作在推動性別平等時面臨之差異。根據10位第一線的利害關係人訪談,探討體格、體能的變化及真實職業資格此概念的引用,了解性別平等及勤務運作上的關係。文章的軸心集中在分定男女錄取名額與法院服務對象的性別比例,以及男女法警在執勤時所面臨的困難與挑戰。根據深入訪談與相關會議紀錄的爬梳,研究者認為,目前國家考試在面對女性考生進行合理性的差別對待時,需要思考的非僅男女的數量問題,而應更審慎探討性別平等在勤務運作時需調整的其他相關事項。故不能簡單地將國家考試制度推動性別不設限的規範,視為性別平等的落實;此乃因性別不設限的相關規定,不僅在實務上依然區分性別,更已造成勤務運作困難與相互怨懟的機會。
[關鍵詞]:性別平等、分定男女錄取名額、勤務運作、法警
Gender Equality Issues in Civil Service Examination and Bailiff Operation: Some Reflections from Empirical Studies
Yu-Jung Lee, Jong H. Huang
Abstract
Illustrated by the changes in the gender quotas of court police entrance exam, this paper discusses the gap of gender equality between civil service recruitment and its daily operation. The authors conducted in-depth interviews of ten stakeholders, reviewing their views on gender equality at work. The three foci of this research are: the gender quotas of court police entrance exam, the actual gender-ratio between court police and inmates served, and the challenges and difficulties faced by court police in action. Based on the interviews and detailed analysis of governmental meeting records, the authors conclude that the pursuit of gender equality is not just about the quantity but also the quality of manpower recruited as well as the operation procedures in the public sector. If the daily tasks performed are not sexually indiscriminative in nature, simply abolishing gender quotas (or different standards of examination based on sex) in the recruitment process is likely to cause more troubles and complaints than improving gender equality at workplace.
Keywords: gender equality, gender ratio policy for recruitment, operation, court police
