“…Although considerable improvement has been noted regarding the status of women in police organisations (Chu et al, 2020;Nielson et al, 2020) and in the process of police education, many female police officers have had negative experiences related to their promotion and harassment at work (Spasić et al, 2015). Female police officers face numerous challenges and barriers to full integration into the police force daily (Nielson et al, 2020;Shelley et al, 2011) and they are still significantly underrepresented, despite the scientifically proven benefits they bring to the organisation and the fact that they can perform police work just as successfully as men (Kakar, 2002;.…”

“…Sin embargo, el interés de la literatura internacional por la investigación de las relaciones de género y la participación de las mujeres en contextos de trabajo tradicionalmente masculinizados ha sido mucho menor. Entre ellos, destaca la escasez de estudios sobre la participación de las mujeres en los cuerpos de seguridad y fuerzas armadas, caracterizados por una clásica hegemonía masculina (Hale, 2012;Spasić, Djurić y Mršević, 2015).…”

“…Así, y a excepción de Estados Unidos y los países anglosajones, donde la bibliografía existente es amplia, las mujeres en los cuerpos de seguridad y militares siguen constituyéndose como un territorio inexplorado en el ámbito de la investigación y el análisis (Silvestri, 2003;Spasić, Djurić y Mršević, 2015;Torrente, 1992). En concreto, este tipo de estudios son muy escasos en países como España (Arteaga, 2000;Hombrados, Olmedo y del Val, 2007;Jar, 1999).…”

ResumenEl objetivo de este estudio es analizar la participación femenina en el Cuerpo Nacional de Policía y en el Personal Militar en España. A tal fin, se han recopilado y analizado, con perspectiva de género, datos provenientes de diversas fuentes secundarias oficiales. El análisis estadístico revela la existencia de una doble segregación ocupacional en este ámbito: las mujeres continúan constituyéndose como una minoría en una esfera masculinizada (segregación horizontal) y se concentran ocupando las categorías y escalas inferiores, siendo casi inexistente su presencia en los rangos más altos (segregación vertical). De este modo, el reconocimiento del derecho al acceso de las mujeres a estos ámbitos laborales a finales del siglo XX no ha implicado aún una representación equilibrada entre ambos sexos.AbstractThe aim of this study is to analyse the participation of women in National Police Force and in Military Personnel in Spain. To this end, data from various official secondary sources have been compiled and analysed from a gender perspective. The statistical analysis reveals the existence of a double occupational segregation in this field: women continue to be a minority in a masculinized sphere (horizontal segregation) and occupy lower categories and scales, being almost non-existent their presence in the highest ranks (vertical segregation). In this way, the recognition of women's right to access these labour fields in the end of the 20th century has not yet implied a balanced representation of both sexes.
