本研究目的在於釐清消防員性別與工作績效之關係，因為高的工作偏好會容易產生高的工作績效，但在高勞力高工時的消防員工作下男女性別會因為工作偏好而影響工作績效，目前並不清楚，因此本研究探討消防員性別與工作績效關係，並以工作偏好為中介作為本研究的方向與目的。因此本研究方法採階層式回歸來作分析，並以現職消防人員做測驗人員，本研究總共發出120份問卷，有17份問卷未回收，共回收103份問卷而其中有效問卷101份，並以李克特五點量表來做分析檢驗。本研究主要發現消防員性別與工作偏好有正相關，工作偏好與工作績效有正相關，以及消防員性別與工作績效有正相關，因此可以發現到男女消防員喜歡消防因此影響到工作績效，因為男性之工作偏好強調在外勤工作績效表現較女性佳，而女性工作偏好強調在內勤工作績效上表現會比男性佳，且所表現的工作績效更為顯著。
