Abstract
The purpose of this study is to assess police women’s empowerment in Ethiopia with emphasis on Oromia regional state police commission. More specifically, it aimed to assess factors affecting police women’s empowerment to assume a leadership position. That is aimed to examine gender difference in decision making position. To this end, a sample of 160 police women respondents were drawn from the region’s police. In order to determine the sample size probability simple random sampling method was employed. Then next, self- administered questionnaires and interview guides were used to gather data. The data were fed into SPSS version 20.0 followed by analysis and interpretation using descriptive statistics. The findings showed that police women’s are highly underrepresented in higher level leadership positions. This is mainly due to some major factors such as education, sociocultural antecedents; organizational culture and police commission recruitment and promotional practices. As such, the police women found difficult role model and less confidence for the leadership position. This research ends by forwarding a recommendation that in order to minimize the existing gender difference at the level of decision making, the Oromia police commission needs to implement affirmative action such as quota system for police women at entrance stage as well as clearly entrenching supportive criteria while assigning police officers at higher positions.
