碩士 === 東海大學 === 社會工作學系 === 103 === In recent years, it increase the international attention on the gender issues. Taiwan is also actively involved in this. Taiwan is not only started to apply gender mainstreaming to be the highest concept, but also passed the domestic implemental law of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) in 2011. Although it seems that Taiwan scored good results in World’s Women Trends and Statistics in Asia because of the efforts of the government and the civil society, the female still face the gender oppression under invisible social structure which is affected by the stereotypes of tradition. This also allows women difficult to obtain economic resources, and affecting women to obtain their individual rights. Civil bureaucrats are the key figures to examine the national important policy making and law by gender mainstreaming. Besides, labor and social affairs officers are also the important bridge to express women’s economic and job welfare policy. Due to the influence of gender-blind, it should be educate more civil bureaucrats into an expert on gender mainstreaming systematically, and then in order to reach the goal of equality, it should try to change the culture of public bureaucrats system with the concept of gender mainstreaming. For this goal, the government already implements a number of related training courses. However, those efforts do change the attitude of civil bureaucrats or not, or do not necessarily become a real impact, there is need to engage in empirical research. This study conducted quantitative research methods. And the study objects are the association of labor and association of social welfare in the center region, around five countries of Taiwan. I issued total 366 questionnaires, and 297 returns, and there are 295 valid questionnaires. After analysis, the following conclusions: 1. On gender mainstreaming experience, social officers have 78%, only 38% of labor officers have received relevant training courses, there are significant attitudinal differences on the couple property of the economy and employment article of CEDAW. 2. On the relevant experience of CEDAW, social officers have 49% who had received relevant training courses, while only 15% of the labor officers, this gap without reflect in the knowledge test of CEDAW. But this gap show up on the attitude of the couple property independence issues. 3. The only program experience can affect the attitude of the CEDAW gender work is he who had conducted gender mainstreaming related proposals, the other experiences who has doesn’t affect the person’s attitude to CEDAW. 4. The junior officers and social workers have more experience on the gender mainstreaming and CEDAW than the senior executives. Even the junior officers they work less than one year and someone who have more than three years of relevant experience of CEDAW, they are more experience than their senior executives around one to three years. Based on the results of the above studies, I made the following recommendations: 1. Recommendations for Labor and Social units: they should increase some related CEDAW courses. 2. Recommendations for government: they should increase pre-test and post-test courses; it might be good for some research in the future. 3. Recommendations for the later researchers: they can take the social units as the study object and use qualitative research surveys to do the research. Plus, they can increase some research variables as well.
