International Journal of Business Administration, 2015, vol. 6, issue 5, 13-21

Abstract: This research makes an attempt to explore whether or not sufficient public recreational facilities have been provided for foreign women workers in Taiwan and whether or not the general atmosphere makes them afraid to partake in leisure activities. The aim is to apply gender studies in order to understand the different perspectives that foreign female workers have of leisure experience, to explore the social structure and stereotypes which form the power to oppress women and to search for a way to eliminate such oppression and bias. The data for the analysis of these discourses was gathered from documentary analysis and interviews. The collection of informal and formal data enabled the comparison of views that were formally sanctioned by the respondents and those that were informally articulated.
