Abstract:	This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between the physical performance of grassroots firefighters and their work stress and work satisfaction in the Fire Bureau of Taichung City Government. A questionnaire was administered to examine the work stress and satisfaction of grassroots firefighters with different physical performance levels. The differences in physical performance, work stress, and work satisfaction among grassroots firefighters of dissimilar demographic backgrounds were then analyzed to determine the correlations between the work stress and work satisfaction of these firefighters. A questionnaire survey method was employed to distribute the questionnaire to 255 respondents, who were grassroots firefighters in the Fire Bureau of Taichung City Government. Statistical methods including descriptive statistics, t tests, Pearson product–moment correlation, and one-way analysis of variance were adopted to analyze the questionnaire responses. The main findings were as follows: (1) The average of longitudinal physical performance scores of grassroots firefighters significantly affected their work stress; high physical performance led to low work stress. (2) The average of longitudinal physical performance scores of grassroots firefighters significantly affected their work satisfaction; high physical performance led to high work satisfaction. (3) The work stress and physical performance are both with significant relationship on the grassroots firefighters. The aforementioned findings can serve as a reference for relevant subsequent research and governmental units, such as the Ministry of Examination, the National Fire Agency, and local fire departments.
