碩士 === 中華大學 === 科技管理學系 === 106 === Well-being is a key factor for putting social change and life indicator under the microscope. The pursuit of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has led to an economic miracle in Taiwan for the past few decades; however, the relationship between the increasing wealth and people’s well-being remains questionable. Related research has shown that the increase of GDP does not relatively enhance well-being. Most research on workplace well-being in Taiwan has been focused on military teaching and the service industry, but few researchers have touched on the well-being of workers in electronics manufacturing services (EMS) factories, which are the most important of all Taiwan’s overall exports. This research is based on an analysis of the workplace well-being of female workers in the EMS industry and discusses the topic from their perspective using Zaltman Metaphor Elicitation Technique (ZMET) as a tool to interview eight females who work in the warehouse. These are individual interviews, conducted face-to-face with pictures in order to investigate their needs and ideas. The interview data is collected and analyzed by ZMET with regard to perceiving the Conceptual Metaphor and Deep Metaphor of female workers’ well-being at the EMS factory. This research also contains a related discussion of the female workers’ well-being and suggestions.
