Pembahasan mengenai relasi gender di lingkungan kerja perempuan sudah banyak didiskusikan di berbagai belahan dunia. Terlebih topik terkait adanya praktik ketimpangan yang dialami perempuan secara spesifik dimana mereka masih dianggap menempati posisi sub-ordinat dalam dunia kerja. Penelitian ini akan mengulas secara khusus mengenai relasi gender di lingkungan kerja kepolisian dari sudut pandang polwan. Keterlibatan polwan memberikan pengaruh besar terhadap sistem kerja kepolisian yang dikenal bersifat dominan maskulin. Meskipun hal ini sudah berangsur cukup lama, rasio keterlibatan polwan masih jauh tertinggal dibandingkan dengan polisi laki-laki dalam hal pembagian peran serta kepangkatan. Tak banyak yang mengetahui secara mendalam terkait persepsi polwan dalam menjalani karier di lingkungan kerja yang rentan adanya perlakuan diskriminatif. Penelitian ini dilakukan di dua lokasi yaitu Polres Semarang dan Polda Jawa Tengah. Memanfaatkan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan fenomenologi, penelitian ini mencoba mengulas lebih jauh mengenai proses perjalanan karier polwan dalam menghadapi lingkungan kerja kepolisian. Metode pengambilan data dilakukan dengan observasi serta wawancara mendalam dengan informan khususnya polwan. Hasil penelitian ini menemukan adanya proses pelanggengan terhadap sistem patriarkis dalam pembuatan kebijakan khusus Polwan serta adanya proses internalisasi glass ceiling terhadap aturan tersebut yang mempengaruhi identitas mereka sebagai polwan. Peneliti menemukan keterkaitan ideologi konsep Ibuisme Negara dalam sistem kebijakan yang dijalankan institusi kepolisian sampai saat ini.
