To meet the demands of the market companies are deploying the system Prevention and Control, based on Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points-HACCP. This study aimed to verify the quality control in industries that export two lobsters in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil. We applied an ckeck list of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) and Sanitation Standard Operating Procedures (SSOP) HACCP plan review located and investigating microbiological analysis of lobsters. The check list resulted in adequate percentages of greater than 96% for both industries, and the representation of non-slide up to 2.58% and 3.23% respectively for industries A and B, observed only in module buildings and facilities. The HACCP plan in place to three presentations of lobster identifies two critical control points in the processing of lobster tail frozen lobster frozen whole, and three for the whole lobster cooked frozen. Microbiological tests were within the legal standard of reference for this type of food. We conclude that the industries under study perform quality control processing of lobster suited to current standards and is effective for ensuring safe food. / A lagosta é um pescado de grande impacto econômico a nível de exportação para o Brasil, sendo a região Nordeste a principal produtora desse crustáceo, com a pesca das lagostas do gênero Panulirus spp. que destaca-se por seu alto valor comercial. Para atender às exigências de mercado as empresas vêm implantando o Sistema de Prevenção e Controle, com base na Análise de Perigos e Pontos Críticos de Controle- APPCC. Este estudo teve como objetivo verificar o controle de qualidade em duas indústrias que exportam lagostas no estado de Pernambuco, Brasil. Foi aplicado um ckeck list de Boas Práticas de Fabricação (BPF) e Procedimentos Padrões de Higiene Operacional (PPHO), análise do plano APPCC implantado e averiguação das análises microbiológicas das lagostas. O check list resultou em percentuais de adequação maior que 96% para as duas indústrias, sendo a representação das não conformidades em 2,58% e 3,23%, respectivamente para as indústrias “A” e “B”, observadas apenas no módulo de edificações e instalações. O plano de APPCC implantado para três formas de apresentação de lagosta identifica dois pontos críticos de controle no processamento de cauda de lagosta congelada e de lagosta inteira congelada, e três para a lagosta inteira cozida congelada. As análises microbiológicas encontraram-se dentro dos padrões legais de referência para este tipo de alimento. Conclui-se que as indústrias em estudo realizam o controle de qualidade do processamento de lagosta adequado às normas vigentes, sendo eficaz para garantia de alimento seguro.

El objetivo general del presente trabajo es analizar el impacto de la normativa peruana del ordenamiento pesquero en la eficiencia económica de la industria de la anchoveta, en base a la evolución de esfuerzo pesquero, distribución y sostenibilidad del recurso durante el periodo 1990-2013, con la finalidad de evaluar si logró o no sus propósitos y determinar si apoyó a la mejora económica del sector. Dado que la variable eficiencia económica está compuesta por las subvariables esfuerzo pesquero, distribución y sostenibilidad; la evaluación del impacto de la normativa en la variable mencionada se descompone en el impacto de dicha normativa sobre sus sub-variables. Respecto al esfuerzo pesquero, el objetivo es conocer el efecto del ordenamiento pesquero sobre los factores de producción en la pesca de anchoveta durante el periodo 1990-2013, mediante indicadores, a fin de evaluar si la normativa benefició al sector empresarial en la administración de estos recursos. / Trabajo de investigación

La recherche porte sur l’industrie des sécheries de morues de l’agglomération bordelaise (Bordeaux, Talence et Bègles) aux XIXe et XXe siècles. Elle s’intéresse également au trafic morutier du port girondin. Cette industrie nouvelle à Bordeaux, mais aussi dans d’autres ports de France, naît vers 1825-1830. A partir de 1860, les trente sécheries bordelaises détiennent un quasi-monopole du séchage en France. La création de sécheries mécaniques à vapeur dans les ports normands et bretons à partir de 1900 entraîne l’érosion du monopole bordelais. Après la Seconde Guerre mondiale, le négoce et l’industrie du séchage peinent à se moderniser tandis que, paradoxalement, Bordeaux devient un important port d’armement à la grande pêche. Vers 1968, le développement de la congélation entraîne la fermeture rapide des sécheries. Les armements bordelais restent actifs jusqu’à la veille des années 1990. Une partie de l’étude est consacrée à la sociologie des acteurs du négoce de la morue à Bordeaux : armateurs, consignataires, marchands. Une attention particulière est portée aux sécheurs ou laveurs de morues qui, en grande partie, sont originaires du Cantal. / This research concerns the industrial development of cod drying plants in Bordeaux urban area (Bordeaux, Talence and Bègles) in the 19th and 20th centuries. It also deals with the cod trade in the port. This new industry in Bordeaux, but also in other french ports, is born around 1825-1830. From 1860, thirty driers of Bordeaux area hold a virtual monopoly of the drying industry in France. The creation of steam mechanical driers in the Norman and Breton ports from 1900 leads to the erosion of Bordeaux monopoly. After the Second World War, the trade and the drying industry have difficulty getting modernized whereas, paradoxically, Bordeaux becomes an important port for cod fishing. By 1968, the development of freezing leads to the fast closing down of the drying plants. Armaments of Bordeaux remain active until 1990s. A part of this study is also dedicated to the sociology of the actors of the cod trade in Bordeaux: ship owners, consigners, merchants. A particular interest is taken in cods-driers who are mostly native of Cantal.

The time-honored profession of commercial fishing in the Florida Keys is in danger of extinction as each year passes and fewer commercial fishermen remain in an industry that is sinking in the wake of politicians, land developers, and financial woes. At the heart of the problem is the threat of overfishing, a subject that is increasingly at the forefront of media attention and environmental campaigns. The villain in this story of death and destruction more often than not are commercial fishermen. But the blame is misguided. Our fishermen work according to the letter of the law and strive to maintain healthy sustainable fish stocks and sound marine ecosystems. It is unlikely that the American hunger for seafood will diminish so in the absence of locally caught fish the public has no choice but to support the efforts of unchecked foreign fisheries—Fisheries that are not managed as well as ours and in some instances fish until there is nothing left to take. / text

Este proyecto tiene como objeto de estudio a una empresa pesquera nacional líder en su sector, dedicada a la extracción, transformación y comercialización de recursos hidrobiológicos para consumo humano indirecto y directo. La presente tesis propone el análisis, diseño e implementación de un asistente virtual para gestionar permisos y atención de consultas para reducir los tiempos en los cierres de planillas semanales de tripulantes y obreros. Los procesos de estudio son la gestión de permisos y la gestión de consultas del área de Gestión Humana. En el primer proceso, las solicitudes del personal tripulante y obrero se realizan con formatos físicos y son registrados de forma manual en el sistema por los responsables de administración de personal, lo que está sujeto a errores de digitación y a que no se realicen en el tiempo oportuno lo que produce pagos incorrectos en la nómina y reprocesos. En el segundo proceso, las consultas que los colaboradores realizan a los responsables de administración de personal sobre temas relacionados a sus pagos son recurrentes todas las semanas debido a que necesitan conocer cómo se calculan sus pagos semanales que dependen de factores variables derivados de la producción. También, realizan consultas variadas como los tipos de beneficios, seguros y otras gestiones personales. Bajo esta premisa, nuestra propuesta de solución en este proyecto se basa en un asistente virtual con reconocimiento de lenguaje natural utilizando inteligencia cognitiva, con acceso mediante una aplicación móvil, para que los tripulantes y obreros puedan auto gestionar sus descansos y consultas de manera oral o escrita mediante un asistente virtual tal como si lo hicieran con una persona real. Además, dejamos abierto este canal para que pueda ser usado por otros procesos del área y de otras áreas de la empresa. Todo esto, ayudará a minimizar el tiempo de horas hombre que se invierte en registrar descansos y gestionar las consultas para que el área de Gestión Humana se pueda enfocar al cálculo correcto y oportuno de los cierres de planillas semanales, y en otras funciones propias del área. / This project aims to study a leading national fishing company, a leader in its sector, dedicated to the extraction, transformation, and commercialization of hydrobiological resources for indirect and direct human consumption. This thesis proposes the analysis, design, and implementation of a virtual assistant to manage permits and attend inquiries to reduce the closing times of weekly payroll for crew and workers. The study processes are the management of permits and the management of queries from the Human Management area. In the first process, the requests of the crew and worker personnel are made with physical formats and are manually registered in the system by those responsible for personnel administration, which is subject to typing errors since they are not always carried out in a timely fashion which produces incorrect payroll payments and the need for corrections. In the second process, the consultations that collaborators make to those responsible for personnel administration on issues related to their payments are recurring every week because they need to know how their weekly payments are calculated, which depend on variable factors derived from production. Also, they carry out various queries such as types of benefits, insurance, and other personal procedures. Under this premise, our solution proposal in this project is based on a virtual assistant with natural language recognition using cognitive intelligence, with access through a mobile app, so that crew members and workers can self-manage their breaks and consultations orally or in writing. using a virtual assistant as if they were doing it with a real person. In addition, we leave this channel open so that it can be used by other processes in the area and other areas of the company. All this will help to minimize the man-hour time that is invested in recording breaks and managing inquiries so that the Human Management area can focus on the correct and timely calculation of weekly payroll closings, and on other functions of the area. / Tesis

No. of bitstreams: 0 / A quitina é o principal produto obtido do processamento das cascas de crustáceos. Esse biopolímero e o seu derivado, quitosana, têm despertado grande interesse comercial em virtude das possibilidades de aplicações que possuem. O gerenciamento desses resíduos e dos subprodutos gerados nas etapas no processo de obtenção pode ser considerado um modelo de biorrefinaria. A implementação de plantas para extração de quitina e quitosana é um desafio, uma vez que a demanda produtiva deve ser atendida sem causar danos ao meio ambiente. Uma grande variedade de quitosanas com diferentes propriedades físicoquímicas podem ser obtidas variando-se as condições de reação. Essas propriedades dependem da origem da matéria-prima, do seu grau médio de desacetilação, distribuição média dos grupos acetil ao longo da cadeia principal e da sua massa molecular média. Os fornecedores de quitosana comercial geralmente não mencionam a procedência da matéria-prima e pouca ou nenhuma informação é fornecida acerca do seu processamento. Sendo assim, as características e a reatividade do produto final podem variar gerando resultados não reprodutíveis. No presente estudo, foi utilizada a biomassa oriunda de rejeitos da indústria pesqueira de camarão da região de Cananéia SP. As amostras de - quitina foram obtidas por dois procedimentos diferentes: no primeiro, P1, as cascas de camarão após passar pelo pré-tratamento (lavagem, secagem e moagem) foram desproteinizadas para retirada das proteínas em hidróxido de sódio (NaOH) diluído nas concentrações 2%, 5% e 10% e desmineralizadas em ácido clorídrico (HCl) a 20% (v/v) para retirada dos carbonatos; no segundo procedimento, P2, essas etapas foram invertidas. A biomassa resultante foi desacetilada com hidróxido de sódio concentrado a 30%, 40% e 50% em tempos que variaram de 2 a 6 horas. As principais propriedades físico-químicas das amostras de quitosanas obtidas foram determinadas utilizando a espectroscopia na região do infravermelho com transformada de Fourier (FT-IR) para a determinação do grau médio de acetilação, GA, e a técnica de titulação ácido-base mensurada por condutimetria foi utilizada para comparar os resultados; a viscosimetria capilar para a determinação da massa molar média viscosimétrica, Mv , e a difração de raios X (DRX) para avaliar o grau médio de cristalinidade, X. Além disso, foram empregadas as técnicas de microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV) para análises morfológicas dos materiais obtidos e a espectrometria de fluorescência de raios X por dispersão de comprimento de onda (WDXRF) para análise química das quitosanas. O GA e o X das amostras diminuíram à medida em que o tratamento se tornou mais vigoroso, enquanto a Mv aumentou. O procedimento 2 foi o mais viável por eliminar a etapa de despigmentação, pois originou amostras com tonalidade mais clara e fáceis de pulverizar. / Dissertação (Mestrado em Tecnologia Nuclear) / IPEN/D / Instituto de Pesquisas Energeticas e Nucleares - IPEN-CNEN/SP

Thesis (MBA (Business Management))--University of Stellenbosch, 2008. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Verskeie korporatiewe fiaskos gedurende die afgelope dekade het wêreldwye opskudding veroorsaak met die gevolg dat daar vanaf ‘n nuwe oogpunt gekyk word na die wyses waarop korporasies bestuur word. Terselfdertyd is daar ‘n wêreldwye belangstelling gekweek in volhoubare ontwikkeling en korporasies se bydrae daartoe. Dit, tesame met korporatiewe bestuur, het tot die gevolg gehad dat die fokus vanaf die tradisionele finansiële verslaggewing geskuif het na rapportering op die sogenaamde “Tripple Bottom Line” en meer en meer maatskappye oor die wêreld genereer en publiseer deesdae op hul ekonomies-, maatskaplike-, omgewingsverantwoordelikhede en prestasies. Gou is daar egter besef dat rapportering en die opstel van beleide self nie genoeg is nie en een van die die grootste uitdagings aan korporatiewe bestuurders tans is om te verseker dat hul korporatiewe bestuurstelsels hul volhoubare strategieë ondersteun om te verseker dat die strategieë in hul maatskappystelsels en prosesse geintegreer is. Kaplan en Norton het in 1992 die Gebalanseerde Telkaart ontwikkel. Die telkaart is as instrument voorgestel om strategieë in aksie oor te skakel. Die telkaart erken dat die tradisionele finansiële maatstawwe nie voldoende is om die volhoudbare sukses van die maatskappy te verseker nie en skep ‘n balans tussen nie-tradisionele maatstawwe oor vier areas: finansieël, kliënte, interne prosesse en leer en groei. Alhoewel daar verskeie gevallestudies in literatuur voorkom waar Gebalanseerde Telkaart implementering gefaal het, het navorsing bewys dat in gevalle waar dit wel suksesvol geimplementeer is, die telkaart ‘n dramatiese verskil aan die maatskapy se prestasie gemaak het. Daar moet dus besef word dat die telkaart wel sy tekortkominge het en dat die implementering daarvan oordeelkundig moet geskied. Gedurende die 21st eeu het outeurs die potensiaal van die Gebalanseerde Telkaart om korporatiewe volhoudbaarheidsstrategië in aksie oor te skakel raakgesien om sodoende die gaping tussen volhoudbare korporatiewe bestuur en die integrasie van beleid en strategieë in die maatskappy prosesse en -stelsels te oorbrug met die integrasie van volhoudbare maatstawwe in die Gebalanseerde Telkaart. Wêreldwyd is die visvangbedryf gedurig onder die kollig vanweë sy impak op die omgewing en die Suid-Afrikaanse visvangbedryf word nie uitgesluit nie. Die visbedryf is ‘n bron afhanklike bedryf en maatskappye moet teen mekaar meeding vir toegang tot die ontgunning van die bron. Vanuit ‘n ekonomiese en ‘n omgewings oogpunt is dit dus van uiters belang dat maatskappye in die bedryf volhoudbare strategieë toepas om die hernubaarheid van die bron te verseker. Suid-Afrikaanse maatskappye bevind hulself egter in ‘n unieke situasie in terme van maatskaplike verantwoordelikheid vanweë die onregmatighede van die apartheidstelsel en maatskaplike verantwoordelikheid moet dus transformasie insluit. Daarvoor het die Departement van Handel en Industrie reeds Die Swart Ekonomiese Bemagtigings Telkaart ingestel om die vordering van maatskappye te meet. Hierdie telkaarte vorm dus ‘n uitstekende basis vir die volhoudbaarheids gebalanseerde integrasie, nie net om te voldoen aan die legislatiewe regulasies nie, maar ook om die geleenhede wat daaruit kan voortspruit ten volle te benut. Hierdie navorsingsverslag ondersoek dus die skakels tussen korporatiewe bestuur en korporatiewe volhoudbaarheid, die teorië rondom die Volhoudbaare Gebalanseerde Telkaart en die moontlike toepassing daarvan op die Suid-Afrikaanse visbedryf. / ENGLISH SUMMARY: Over the past decade outrageous corporate fiascos has resulted in a renewed interest in Corporate Governance and the way Corporates are managed. At the same time sustainable development and the Corporate contribution and Corporate sustainability has gathered worldwide interest in both institutional and corporate spheres. This has triggered new expectations for business transparency and has shifted the focus from traditional financial reporting to reporting on the organization’s impact and performance on the triple bottom line. More companies from across the globe are developing and reporting on their economic, social- and environmental responsibility and performance. It soon became clear that reporting on broad policy is simply not enough and one of the biggest challenges of corporate managers today are to ensure that their sustainable strategies and policies are integrated into their organizational governance structures and processes. Kapland and Norton have developed the Balanced Scorecard in 1992 to provide business managers with a management tool to translate their strategies into action. The scorecard recognizes that traditional financial measurements is not enough to ensure the continued success of organizations and creates a balance between non traditional measurements across four perspectives: financial, customers, internal processes and learning and growth. Although various case studies exist about Balanced Scorecard implementation, empirical research have indicated substantial performance improvement at organizations that have successfully implemented the Balanced Scorecard. Implementation thereof therefore has to be carried out with caution. During the 2000’s authors has recognized the potential of the Balanced Scorecard to translate Corporate sustainability strategies into action and bridge the gap between the way corporates are governed and sustainability by integrating sustainability measures into the Balanced Scorecard for the creation of the sustainability Balanced Scorecard. Fisheries, world wide are continually under the spotlight as a result of their impact on the environment and the South African fishing industry is certainly not excluded. Fisheries are a resource dependent industry and companies have to compete against each other for access to these resources. Apart from its environmental impact it is therefore of outmost importance that managers within the industry considers all the sustainability aspects in their organizational structures. This research report thus explores the link between Corporate Governance and Corporate Sustainability, the theory surrounding the sustainability Balanced Scorecard and the possible application thereof in order to ensure the long term sustainability of the industry.

Conservation criminology as a derivative of environmental criminology is considered in this dissertation through a strategic/empirical investigation of the illegal exploitation of a cross-section of certain, essentially fiscally attractive marine resources, as a form of environmental crime in the Western Cape province. Through primarily qualitative and quantitative interviewing techniques, augmented by the application of a survey questionnaire, significant and pragmatic insight was obtained from knowledgeable functionaries. The study elucidates the purview and dynamics of the marine crime phenomenon by focussing specifically on issues such as modus operandi, crime scenes, causation, operational efficacy, and social/biological repercussions. Deficient policing capacity and concomitant lack of deterrence, compounded by institutional limitations, emerge as fundamental proclivities impeding proficient marine resource conservation. It is envisaged that this study will broaden the frontiers of marine crime knowledge, contributing not only to the implementation of effective mitigation programmes but also to enriching the criminological discipline as a whole. / Criminology / M.A. (Criminology)
