工會中的女人:既柔順又慓悍的雙重策略

Women in the Union: Strategies of Submissiveness as Well as Toughness

摘要


女性雖已大量進入勞動市場,但受到家庭職責、政經情勢及性別文化的影響,而在勞動市場中處於弱勢,同時也影響到女性對工會的參與。女性在工會中的低比例造成工會充斥男性觀點,以維護勞工權益為主要訴求的工會,卻未必能捍衛女性勞工的權益。 本文以某航空公司工會的空服員為案例,以質性研究方法,透過檔案內容分析、深度訪談和參與觀察,以了解工會中較活躍的女性的工會參與動機與經驗。本研究所要探討的問題如下:女性為何會參與工會?她們在工會中扮演什麼樣的角色?是什麼樣的機制影響了女性的參與和經驗? 研究結果顯示,女性因經濟因素而行動,並在行動中找到參與工會的定位。資方的父權心態鑲嵌在企業組織的運作中,構成女性空服員的勞動困境。這樣的父權心態也延伸至工會及勞資關係中,使得女性被迫依附在男性之下,造成男性對工會的主導,限縮了工會抗爭的可能性。此外,女性的基本勞動條件仍未受保障,但她們已開始在工會中推展諸如母性保護、性騷擾等性別相關的勞動議題。 本研究亦對組織女性提出不同的思考,指出女性的聯結並不是進入工會才存在,女性在職場、企業組織及性別文化的位置中自會形成其網絡,實務工作者應發展出敏銳度,進而讓工會成為強化女性職場網絡的機制。

Many women participate the labor market nowadays, but family obligation, socio-economic situation and gender culture make them stay at the bottom of the labor market. These factors also affect the part-taking of women in the union, thus the union that is supposed to stand up for labor rights is full of male perspectives and ignores the existence of female workers. This study examines the flight attendant members of one airplane industrial union through qualitative research which includes context analysis, in-depth interview and participant observation. These research questions have been proposed: Why do women participate the union? What kind of roles do they play? And what kinds of factors affect their union participation and experiences? Women’s action comes from economic cause. From their action, they recognize their own positions and roles in the union. This study pinpoints that the patriarchy of the capitalism inside the enterprise has put the female flight attendants in a very difficult position in the enterprise as well as in the union. Female members are pushed to rely on their male representatives. The uniondominated by male members narrows down the possibility of struggle. Although the basic labor conditions of female workers are under protection, female workers are trying to propose some issues of their concerns, such as maternity leave and sex harassment. Recommendations on organizing female workers are proposed: The organizers should be sensitive to the unique network among female flight attendants, and be innovative to recruit female workers into the unions.
