And among all the field service offices organized by police, it is police station that has the most complex working properties. Female officers working there are not only those who are rarely seen before but also those who are confronted with the greatest pressure as well as the most challenges. This study aims at understanding the influence of gender occupation segregation on policewomen’s work and the influence of police’s organizational adaptiveness on them.
