Those are outsourced workers in a continuously way. They were present for consecutive years personally way and even in a functional way, these workers establish a bi-univocal and symbiotic relationship with those who surround them. It is not different at the Rural Federal University of Pernambuco (UFRPE), which has a significant contribution from the workers. This study intends to understand the correlation of concepts involved in the appropriation of knowledge of these workers in service and how this knowledge could be measured and formally recognized through a Certification System for their own knowledge. In the investigations that deal with the Certification by already developed habilities was found the concept of skills. To a better comprehension about the problem we sought to understand how this concept would be or not be useful in this purpose. Having established the possible conceptual space to work, it was intent in an exploratory research allied with case study, since the sample cut focused on workers of Vet UFRPE Hospital, the identification of a certification model that make the most of these workers. Among the methods studied, one has presented as the most appropriate, perhaps because it is more directed to the recognition of acquired skills and not necessarily intrinsic skills. The results, rather than allow the understanding of the elements involved in this relationship UFRPE / worker, brings to light the individual value of each one dedicated to the daily task of contributing to the objectives of the institution, in which they work with care and diligence, though not confirm the possibility and certify them the competences in terms of the study has show. However, it maintains that it can certify them the knowledge and skills gained in services in order to give them a formal qualifying title of his professional status. / A administra??o p?blica tem contado h? j? um bom n?mero de anos com o incremento de uma for?a de trabalho muitas vezes determinante dos resultados daqueles ?rg?os nos quais est? inserta. Trata-se dos trabalhadores em servi?os terceirizados de forma continuada. Presentes por anos seguidos seja essa presen?a de forma pessoal ou at? mesmo funcional, esses trabalhadores estabelecem uma rela??o biun?voca e simbi?tica com seu entorno. N?o ? diferente na Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco (UFRPE), que conta com uma significativa contribui??o deles. Este trabalho procurou compreender a correla??o de conceitos envolvidos na apropria??o do conhecimento desses trabalhadores em servi?o e como esses conhecimentos poderiam ser aferidos e reconhecidos formalmente, atrav?s de um Sistema de Certifica??o por seus conhecimentos. Nas investiga??es que tratam sobre o assunto da certifica??o por habilidades j? desenvolvidas encontrou-se o conceito de compet?ncias. Para melhor compreender o problema buscou-se entender como este conceito seria ou n?o ?til a este prop?sito. Estabelecido o espa?o conceitual poss?vel para se trabalhar, buscou-se numa pesquisa explorat?ria aliada ao estudo de caso, uma vez que o recorte amostral centrou-se nos trabalhadores do Hospital Veterin?rio da UFRPE, a identifica??o de um modelo de certifica??o que aproveitasse a esses trabalhadores. Dentre os m?todos estudados, um se apresentou como mais adequado, talvez porque seja mais direcionado ao reconhecimento de habilidades adquiridas e n?o necessariamente ? compet?ncias intr?nsecas. Os resultados, mais do que possibilitar a compreens?o dos elementos envolvidos nessa rela??o UFRPE/trabalhador, nos trazem ? luz o valor individual de cada um dos dedicados ? tarefa di?ria de contribuir com os objetivos da institui??o na qual laboram com zelo e dilig?ncia, embora n?o confirmem a possibilidade e certificar-lhes as compet?ncias nos termos do que este estudo mostrou. Contudo, sustenta que se pode certificar-lhes os conhecimentos e habilidades adquiridas em servi?os com o fim de conceder-lhes um t?tulo qualificativo formal de sua condi??o profissional.

These cycles occur both in export markets (low income countries), as in the importing markets (high-income countries). Among the producers markets, Argentina is highlighted in Latin America, where the organic production area has suffered decline since 2009. In high-income countries, Australia is the country with the largest organic area certified. The production of organic food has forced countries to establish mechanisms for ensuring organic quality. The standardization process began with IFOAM in 1981, private organization, with France the first country to regulate in the same years. Currently in several countries it is accepted more than a guarantee mechanism of organic quality. Certification by audit (individual and group) is still the main form of security, but the participatory guarantee systems (GSP) organic quality are being broadcast around the world, including some studies for the recognition of SPG's in countries where Certification is the main form of control. / Desde o final dos anos de 1980 at? os dias atuais, a produ??o de alimentos org?nicos vem sofrendo ciclos de expans?o e retra??o, dependendo do local, impulsionados por pol?ticas p?blicas e pela demanda de mercado nos pa?ses europeus, americanos e asi?ticos. Esses ciclos acontecem tanto nos mercados exportadores (pa?ses de baixa renda), como nos mercados importadores (pa?ses de alta renda). Entre os mercados produtores, a Argentina ? destaque na Am?rica Latina, onde a ?rea de produ??o org?nica vem sofrendo queda desde 2009. Nos pa?ses de alta renda, a Austr?lia ? o pa?s com maior ?rea org?nica certificada. A produ??o de alimentos org?nicos obrigou os pa?ses a criarem mecanismos para garantir a qualidade org?nica. O processo de normaliza??o iniciou-se com a IFOAM em 1981, organiza??o privada, sendo a Fran?a o primeiro pa?s a regulamentar no mesmo ano. Atualmente em diversos pa?ses do mundo aceita-se mais de um mecanismo de garantia da qualidade org?nica. A certifica??o por auditoria (individual e em grupo) ainda ? a principal forma de garantia, mas os sistemas participativos de garantia (SPG) da qualidade org?nica est?o sendo difundidos em todo o mundo, inclusive h? estudos para o reconhecimento dos SPG?s em pa?ses onde a certifica??o ? a principal forma de controle

Culture is considered an important factor influencing the behavior and actions of individuals in an organization. Studies have identified six indicators as applicable to the organizational culture of food safety in relation to food safety performance: leadership, communication, commitment, environment, perception of risk and reward system. The research was conducted in the restaurant industry from an energy company, food service which is under the management of an outsourced food services. The research field was the local team of food service staff. The population was 90 people. A non-probability sample was defined by the criteria of accessibility that selects the elements for ease of access to them, in order to cover 100% of the team. We used a questionnaire to evaluate the variables determining the organizational culture of food safety. The evaluation of ABNT NBR 15635:2008 was performed by comparative reading with the sanitary regulation in the country. In assessing the applicability of ABNT NBR 15635:2008 in the restaurant industry of the company's energy business, we conducted an audit of the second part using a checklist based on this standard adapted for this research. It found 93% compliance of the items analyzed, elaborated action plan 5W2H for nonconformities. Participant observation was analyzed aspects systematized in the assessment instrument completed by employees. The result of the nonconformities encountered served as a subsidy for their applicability. The ABNT NBR 15635:2008, currently the only certification available for food service proved to be capable of implementation at the study site through a checklist of easy application, to obtain the guarantee of safe food. The study showed a strong organizational culture with food safety aspects to be discussed with the aim of continuous improvement. The organizational culture of food safety of this company providing food service favors the implementation of ABNT NBR 15635:2008 studied in the restaurant industry for ensuring food safety. It is suggested that future studies seek to demonstrate the influence of organizational culture on food safety certification process for food safety. / Visando a garantia do alimento seguro em um restaurante industrial de uma empresa de grande porte do ramo de energia, este estudo buscou identificar a rela??o da cultura organizacional de seguran?a de alimentos na aplicabilidade da norma ABNT NBR 15635:2008, norma utilizada pelos estabelecimentos que desejam assegurar e demonstrar que as boas pr?ticas e os controles operacionais essenciais est?o implantados, implementados e mantidos, obtendo a certifica??o dos seus estabelecimentos. A cultura ? considerada um importante fator de influ?ncia no comportamento e das a??es dos indiv?duos que comp?em uma organiza??o. Estudos identificaram seis indicadores como aplic?veis ? cultura organizacional da seguran?a de alimentos em rela??o ao desempenho da seguran?a de alimentos: lideran?a, comunica??o, comprometimento, meio ambiente, percep??o de risco e sistema de recompensa. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida no restaurante industrial de uma empresa de energia, cujo servi?o de alimenta??o est? sob a gest?o de uma empresa terceirizada de servi?os de alimenta??o. O universo da pesquisa de campo foi a equipe local de funcion?rios do servi?o de alimenta??o. A popula??o foi de 90 pessoas. A amostra n?o-probabil?stica foi definida pelo crit?rio de acessibilidade que seleciona os elementos pela facilidade de acesso a eles, visando contemplar 100% da equipe. Foi aplicado um question?rio visando avaliar as vari?veis determinantes da cultura organizacional de seguran?a de alimentos. A avalia??o da norma ABNT NBR 15635:2008 foi feita atrav?s da leitura comparativa com as legisla??es sanit?rias vigentes no pa?s. Na verifica??o da aplicabilidade da norma ABNT NBR 15635:2008 no restaurante industrial da empresa do ramo de energia, foi realizada uma auditoria de 2? parte utilizando uma Lista de Verifica??o baseada nesta norma adaptada para esta pesquisa. Constatou-se 93% de conformidade dos itens analisados, sendo elaborado plano de a??o 5W2H para as n?o conformidades encontradas. Atrav?s da observa??o participante, foram analisados os aspectos sistematizados no instrumento de avalia??o respondido pelos funcion?rios. O resultado das n?o-conformidades encontradas serviu de subs?dio para a sua aplicabilidade. A norma ABNT NBR 15635:2008, atualmente, a ?nica dispon?vel para certifica??o de servi?os de alimentos mostrou-se pass?vel de implementa??o no local de estudo, atrav?s de uma Lista de Verifica??o de f?cil aplica??o, para obten??o da garantia do alimento seguro. O estudo demonstrou uma forte cultura organizacional de seguran?a de alimentos com alguns aspectos a serem tratados com objetivo de melhoria cont?nua. A cultura organizacional de seguran?a de alimentos desta empresa prestadora de servi?o de alimenta??o favorece a implanta??o da norma ABNT NBR 15635:2008 no restaurante industrial estudado para a garantia do alimento seguro. Sugere-se que estudos futuros busquem comprovar a influ?ncia da cultura organizacional de seguran?a de alimentos no processo de certifica??o em seguran?a de alimentos.

In doing so, it aimed to identify risks, deal with major non-conformities and contribute to improving the correction of non-conformities, the mechanisms of conformity assessment and the SISORG (Brazilian System of Organic Conformity Assessment). The analyses were based on customers? certification processes (documents) and their organic conformity assessment, audit certification requests and customers? opinion as articulated in their responses to a questionnaire. The process analysis pointed to non-conformities in 7 out of the 8 conformity sections, while the request analysis pointed to non-conformities and inconsistencies in all sections, with enforcement of 20%. In both analyses of the Office, the highest incidence of non-conformities related to document Organic Management Plan Booklet. Similarly, customers assessed that the Management Plan Booklet provided by the Ministry of Agriculture is flawed as to the requirements of current legislation. Customers also assessed that the bottlenecks for organic production are related to the construction and structuring of the Brazilian organic agriculture. In conclusion, the Organic Management Plan Booklet does not meet the legislation; the SISORG-oriented organic production requires skilled labor; and the requirements set forth in the regulations for organic agriculture do not have the same dynamics as in the productive practice. / O trabalho teve como objetivo analisar criticamente processos de certifica??o da agricultura org?nica no Brasil, com foco no estado de Minas Gerais, mais especificamente na certificadora p?blica, o Organismo de Avalia??o da Conformidade Instituto Mineiro de Agropecu?ria ? IMA e em seus clientes (produtores org?nicos que solicitaram a certifica??o org?nica e posteriormente cadastrados no MAPA) no intuito de identificar os riscos e tratar as principais n?o conformidades e contribuir para a melhoria da corre??o das n?o conformidades, e dos mecanismos de avalia??es da conformidade e do SISORG. As an?lises se basearam nos processos de certifica??o (documentos) dos clientes e suas avalia??es da conformidade org?nica, na documenta??o de requisi??o ao processo de certifica??o por auditoria e na an?lise pela ?tica do cliente, por question?rio, destas mesmas fases do processo de avalia??o da conformidade org?nica pela Certifica??o por auditoria. A an?lise dos processos apresentou n?o conformidades em 7 das 8 sess?es de verifica??o, a an?lise da documenta??o de requisi??o ao processo de certifica??o apresentou n?o conformidades, inconsist?ncias em todas as sess?es de verifica??o, com efetiva??o dos processos de apenas 20%. Em ambas as an?lises pelo OAC, a maior incid?ncia de n?o conformidades se relacionam ao documento Caderno de Plano de Manejo Org?nico. Da mesma forma na avalia??o pelos clientes, estes apontam que o Caderno de Plano de Manejo disposto pelo Minist?rio da Agricultura ? falho quanto ?s exig?ncias da legisla??o vigente. A an?lise pelo cliente dos gargalos para a produ??o org?nica, relacionam principalmente com a constru??o e estrutura??o da agricultura org?nica brasileira. Diante dos dados obtidos, ? poss?vel concluir que a publica??o caderno plano de manejo disposto pelo Minist?rio da Agricultura, n?o atende a legisla??o a que se relaciona; a produ??o org?nica de acordo com as normas do SISORG demandam m?o de obra especializada; e as exig?ncias dispostas nos normativos da agricultura org?nica n?o t?m a mesma din?mica da pr?tica produtiva.

Brazil recognizes three mechanisms for assessing organic compliance: certifier-operated certification, participatory compliance systems operated by participatory conformity assessment organizations (OPACs) and social control organizations operated by organized family farmers who are exempted from certification to sell directly to consumers. The objective of this legal framework was to represent the various realities of agroecology and organic production in the country. This study aims to investigate the case of public certification in organic agriculture in Brazil, focusing on the State of Minas Gerias, more specifically on Instituto Mineiro de Agropecu?ria (IMA), a Conformity Assessment Agency. As of 2011, producers and conformity assessment agencies must be registered with the Ministry of Agriculture. The analysis of the National Record of Organic Producers (CNPO) in the last four years showed a marked increase in the number of organic producers registered (96%). The distribution of the organic producers in the CNPO according to the three mechanisms proposed in the regulation points to different forms of ensuring organic quality in the country, which follow the regulation despite applying different tools and using different trade spaces. The growth in the number of OPACs operating Participatory Assurance Systems in this period (2012-2016) was over 200%. Certification, albeit not regulated, is the mechanism chosen worldwide to provide organic quality assurance, as implemented primarily by private companies. Public certification takes place only in Denmark, although in some European countries it is subsidized for small producers for a certain period of time. In Brazil, federal resources offered by the Brazilian Support Service for Micro and Small Business (SEBRAE), in partnership with the National Institute of Metrology, Quality and Technology (INMETRO), supported the implementation of public and private certification (SCOFANO, 2014) after publication of the legal framework for organic agriculture (2003-2009). At the federal states level, public certification exists in the states of Paran? through Instituto de Tecnologia do Paran? (TECPAR) and of Minas Gerais through IMA. At the national level, the service is provided by Instituto Nacional de Tecnologia, located in Rio de Janeiro. Producers linked to public certification represent 2.22% of the registrations in the CNPO. Because they are public bodies, they can effectively comply with the principle of independence established by the ISO certification standard. The partnership with the public ATER Organizations is strategic, and should be pursued by public certifiers for the development of the sector. For the analysis of the organization, we rely on the four-fold view of organizations according to the anthroposophy and teachings of Rudolf Steiner. In the resource dimension, IMA needs to improve its fleet and electronic equipment, continue to support the professional qualification of its staff, and also broaden its staff. In the process dimension, it is efficient. However, it should invest in the relationship dimension, integrating its employees and partner organizations. In the identity dimension, actions that favor valuation and reaffirm the mission and values of both employees and the company should be sought, evaluated and renewed periodically. / A regulamenta??o da produ??o org?nica no Brasil foi constru?da de forma participativa, e ? atualizada periodicamente por membros da sociedade civil organizada e ?rg?os p?blicos. O Brasil reconhece tr?s mecanismos de avalia??o da conformidade org?nica: certifica??o operada pelas certificadoras, sistemas participativos de garantia - SPG operados pelas organiza??es participativas de avalia??o da conformidade (OPAC) e as organiza??es de controle social (OCS), operacionalizadas pelos agricultores familiares organizados que realizam a venda direta aos consumidores, sendo isentos de certifica??o. O objetivo deste arcabou?o legal era representar as diversas realidades envolvidas com a agroecologia e a produ??o org?nica no pa?s. O trabalho teve como objetivo o estudo de caso da certifica??o publica na agricultura org?nica no Brasil, com foco no Estado de Minas Gerias, mais especificamente no Organismo de Avalia??o da Conformidade (OAC), Instituto Mineiro de Agropecu?ria (IMA). A partir de 2011 os produtores e organismos de avalia??o da conformidade tinham que estar registrados no Minist?rio da Agricultura, Pecu?ria e do Abastecimento (MAPA). A an?lise do Cadastro Nacional de Produtores Org?nicos (CNPO), nos ?ltimos quatros anos evidenciou um crescimento acentuado no n?mero de produtores org?nicos cadastrados (96 %). A distribui??o dos produtores org?nicos no CNPO pelos tr?s mecanismos propostos na regulamenta??o mostra a realidade de diferentes situa??es existentes no pa?s para garantir as qualidades org?nicas, que embora usem diferentes ferramentas e espa?os de comercializa??o, seguem a regulamenta??o. O crescimento no n?mero de OPACs que operam SPG, nesse per?odo (2012-2016) foi superior a 200%. A certifica??o ? o mecanismo escolhido, mas n?o ? regulamentado, no mundo para dar garantia da qualidade org?nica, executada prioritariamente por empresas privadas. A certifica??o p?blica acontece somente na Dinamarca, embora em alguns pa?ses da Europa seja subsidiada para pequenos produtores, por determinado espa?o de tempo. No Brasil, recursos federais ofertados pelo Servi?o Brasileiro de Apoio as Micro e Pequenas Empresas (SEBRAE) em parceria com o Instituto Nacional de Metrologia, Qualidade e Tecnologia (INMETRO), ap?s publica??o do marco legal da agricultura org?nica (2003- 2009), apoiaram a implanta??o da certifica??o p?blica e privada (SCOFANO, 2014). A certifica??o p?blica estadual existe nos estados do Paran? atrav?s do Instituto de Tecnologia do Paran? (TECPAR) e Minas Gerais atrav?s do IMA, e no ?mbito federal ? ofertada pelo Instituto Nacional de Tecnologia (INT), localizado no Rio de Janeiro. Os produtores vinculados ? certifica??o p?blica, representam 2,22% dos registros no CNPO, e pelo fato de serem ?rg?os p?blicos, podem efetivamente cumprir com o princ?pio da independ?ncia estabelecido pela norma ISO para a certifica??o. A parceria com as organiza??es de ATER p?blica ? estrat?gica, e, deve ser perseguida pelas certificadoras p?blicas para desenvolvimento do setor. Para an?lise da organiza??o, nos baseamos na vis?o quadrimembrada das organiza??es de acordo com a antroposofia e ensinamentos de Rudolf Steiner. O IMA como organiza??o no n?vel dos recursos precisa melhorar a frota e equipamentos eletr?nicos, continuar com o apoio a qualifica??o profissional do seu quadro, mas tamb?m realizar concursos para ampliar sua capacidade de atua??o. No n?vel dos processos, ? eficiente. Deve investir mais no n?vel das rela??es de seus funcion?rios e com as organiza??es parceiras, na busca de maior integra??o. No n?vel da identidade, a??es que favore?am a valora??o e reafirmem a miss?o e os valores dos funcion?rios e da empresa devem ser buscados, avaliados e renovados periodicamente.

The research covered 239 visit reports, from 156 organic growers located at various areas of Rio de Janeiro State. All variables contained on the reports were transferred to computer worksheets. They were then, classified into one of the three axes: technological, environmental or social. Each variable was then divided into items, which were scored, according to its conformity to the organic production rules. Basic statistics were applied to the individual variables which were discussed individually. Then, all scores were standardized by subtracting from the average and dividing by the standard deviation and submitted to an ordination by the three axes - technological, environmental and social. This ordination enabled a group diagnosis of the variables belonging to the three axes. A classification of the growers was then performed, by the sum of the scores for each axis for each year. Most variables contained on the report fitted on the technological axis. The majority of growers used techniques permitted by the legislation; however, no distinction seemed to be made between the recommended and the restricted practices by the growers, since they were used indistinguishably by growers with different profiles and from different regions. The heterogeneity verified among different growers, was in part, a result of the different degrees of conversion into the organic system. There was no relation between time of experience by the grower, with the level of adoption of recommended or restricted practices. The environmental axis also showed a very heterogeneous scenario, with no clear trend towards the location, time of experience, or degree of adoption of technologies. Market issues were the main cause of both, motivation of farmers to enter organic production as well as the main concern for the future of their properties. / O objetivo deste trabalho foi o de diagnosticar a produ??o org?nica no Estado do Rio de Janeiro por meio da an?lise dos relat?rios anuais de vistoria da ABIO (Associa??o dos Produtores Biol?gicos do Estado do Rio de Janeiro) referentes aos anos de 1999 a 2002. A pesquisa considertou 239 relat?rios de vistoria, pertencentes a 156 unidades de produ??o, situadas em diferentes locais do Estado do Rio. Todas as informa??es contidas no relat?rios de vistoria, foram transformadas em vari?veis e transferidas para planilhas. Elas foram ent?o alocadas em um dos tr?s eixos: tecnol?gico, ambiental ou social. Cada vari?vel foi subdividida em items, que eram quantificados de acordo com sua conformidade com as normas vigentes sobre produ??o org?nica no Estado. Estat?stica b?sica foi aplicada ? vari?veis, que foram discutidos individualmente. Ent?o, todos os valores atribu?dos ? diferentes vari?veis foram ent?o padronizados pela diferen?a entre a m?dia , dividida pelo desvio padr?o. Esses valores foram ent?o ordenados de acordo com os tr?s eixos tecnol?gico, ambiental e social. Essa ordena??o permitiu um diagn?stico em grupo das vari?veis. Uma classifica??o dos produtores foi feita por meio da soma dos valores padronizados, para cada ano. A maioria das vari?veis contidas nos relat?rios, encaixou-se no eixo tecnol?gico. A maioria dos produtores usou pr?ticas permitidas pela legisla??o, no entanto, n?o parece ter havido distin??o entre uso de pr?ticas recomendadas e o de pr?ticas permitidas, mas restritas. Essas foram usadas indiscriminadamente por produtores com diferentes perfis e tempos de ado??o de pr?ticas org?nicas. A heterogeneidade verificada entre os produtores foi, em parte, resultado dos diferentes graus de convers?o para o sistema org?nico. N?o houve rela??o entre tempo de experi?ncia do produtor com o n?vel de ado??o das pr?ticas restritas ou recomendadas. O eixo ambiental tamb?m mostrou um cen?rio muito diverso sem nenhuma tend?ncia aparente no que diz respeito ?s praticas usadas, localiza??o da propriedade, ou outra vari?vel qualquer. Os aspectos de mercado parecem ter sido a principal causa/motiva??o dos produtores para entrar na agricultura org?nica e parece ser tamb?m a principal causa de apreens?o dos produtores

Energy sources still widely used in the world, such as oil and coal, are endowed with a high pollution load to the environment, bringing damages to the water, to the air and to humans as well. In addition, although there are conflicting studies, they are also identified as major causes of the greenhouse effect and the global warming phenomenon. They are, moreover, finite sources of energy, given that its reserves will surely run out. However, even if the introduction of biofuels, such as ethanol, in the energy mix is crucial for the survival of the present and future populations, this insertion cannot settle so disorderly and, thus, one must ensure the quality of these resources and promote transparency in international trade. In this manner, a certification process for ethanol is essential to attest that this biofuel meets the sustainable requirements defined for its production. Hence, this study sought to address the importance of the adoption of certification in the ethanol industry, according to the principle of sustainable development, by analyzing the evolution of its concept, its combination with the fundamental objectives sculptured in the Constitution of 1988, its regulation under Brazilian laws and the need for a balance between economic activities and the mentioned principle. The work also encompassed the criteria used to establish certification standards and their participating actors, combined with a study of ongoing initiatives. Finally, the consequences of the adoption of a certification process for ethanol in Brazil were presented, both in terms of sustainable development and in international trade / A gradual inser??o dos biocombust?veis nas matrizes energ?ticas dos pa?ses ? uma mudan?a necess?ria a ser contemplada. As fontes de energia ainda largamente utilizadas no mundo, tais como o petr?leo e o carv?o, s?o dotadas de uma alta carga de poluentes, configurando desde malef?cios ? ?gua, ao ar quanto aos seres humanos. Em adi??o, ainda que existam estudos divergentes, s?o elas tamb?m apontadas como grandes causadoras do efeito estufa e do fen?meno do aquecimento global. Constituem-se, ademais, o petr?leo e o carv?o em fontes finitas de energia, sendo certo que suas reservas chegar?o ao fim. Entretanto, mesmo que a introdu??o dos biocombust?veis nas matrizes energ?ticas, a exemplo do etanol, seja indispens?vel para a sobreviv?ncia das popula??es presentes e futuras, essa inser??o n?o pode se estabelecer de forma desregrada, devendo-se garantir a qualidade de tais recursos e promover a transpar?ncia no com?rcio internacional. Para isso, um processo de certifica??o do etanol ? essencial para atestar que o dito biocombust?vel cumpre com os requisitos de sustentabilidade definidos para a sua produ??o. Assim, o presente trabalho procurou abordar a import?ncia da ado??o da certifica??o na ind?stria do etanol, de acordo com o princ?pio do desenvolvimento sustent?vel, analisando a evolu??o do seu conceito, a sua conjuga??o com os objetivos fundamentais insculpidos na Constitui??o Federal de 1988, a sua regula??o nas leis brasileiras e a necessidade de um equil?brio entre as atividades econ?micas e o princ?pio em quest?o. O trabalho tamb?m analisou os crit?rios utilizados para estabelecer os padr?es de certifica??o e seus atores participantes, em conjunto com um estudo das iniciativas j? existentes. Por fim, foram apresentadas as consequ?ncias da ado??o de um processo de certifica??o para o etanol no Brasil, tanto no plano do desenvolvimento sustent?vel quanto no ?mbito do com?rcio internacional / 2020-01-01

It brings benefits such as the improvement in the processes, products and services; an enhancement in the image of the company (marketing) and satisfaction of the clients. As a whole, this paper aims to evaluate the results obtained from the implementation of the QMS in the certified companies in the ISO 9001 standard, contained in the database of INMETRO, of the Rio Grande do Norte State (RN). In order to achieve the goals, a bibliographical research about the theme quality management system was made and, subsequently a survey was made with the managers of the certified companies in RN, using the online questionnaire. Out of 27 companies that have the certificate in Rio Grande do Norte, 21 responded the data collection instrument. The data analysis was made through techniques of descriptive and multivariate statistics: cluster analysis. The research instrument used contained 20 questions that address the main theme of this dissertation. Using the cluster analysis, four groupings that possessed similarities concerning the survey answers were found. This analysis allowed us to conclude that the QMS boosts significant improvements in the organizations, such as: quality in the reputation of the company and sales increase. On the other hand, it allowed us to identify as main difficulties: the dissemination of the quality culture, lack of commitment of the whole organization and the resistance of the workers / Assumir vantagem competitiva ou satisfazer os clientes s?o raz?es que cada vez mais empresas buscam implementar um Sistema de Gest?o da Qualidade (SGQ). Este traz benef?cios como a melhoria nos processos, produtos e servi?os; melhoria na imagem da empresa (marketing) e satisfa??o dos clientes. Como objetivo geral, este estudo ir? avaliar os resultados obtidos na implementa??o do SGQ nas empresas certificadas na norma ISO 9001, constantes na base de dados do INMETRO, do estado do Rio Grande do Norte (RN). Para cumprir os objetivos, foi realizada uma pesquisa bibliogr?fica sobre o tema sistemas de gest?o da qualidade e posteriormente, foi realizado um survey com os gestores das empresas certificadas no RN, com o uso de question?rio disponibilizado online. Das 27 empresas que possuem o certificado no Rio Grande do Norte, 21 responderam o instrumento de coleta de dados. A an?lise dos dados foi realizada por meio das t?cnicas de estat?stica descritiva e multivariada: an?lise de cluster. O instrumento de pesquisa utilizado foi elaborado com 20 perguntas que abordam a tem?tica central dessa disserta??o. Atrav?s da an?lise de cluster foram encontrados quatro agrupamentos que possu?am similaridade referente as respostas do survey. Esta an?lise permitiu concluir que o SGQ impulsiona melhorias significativas nas organiza??es tais como: qualidade, na reputa??o da corpora??o e aumento de vendas. Por outro lado, identificou como principais dificuldades: dissemina??o da cultura da qualidade, falta de comprometimento de toda a organiza??o e a resist?ncia dos colaboradores

Most works, in some way, deal with the sharing of resources and, in particular, the storage of files. This work complements previous studies and adds new definitions relating to this kind of systems. A system for safe storage of files (SAS-P2P) was specified and built, based on P2P technology, using the JXTA platform. This system uses standard X.509 and PKCS # 12 digital certificates, issued and managed by a public key infrastructure, which was also specified and developed based on P2P technology (PKIX-P2P). The information is stored in a special file with XML format which is especially prepared, facilitating handling and interoperability among applications. The intention of developing the SAS-P2P system was to offer a complementary service for Giga Natal network users, through which the participants in this network can collaboratively build a shared storage area, with important security features such as availability, confidentiality, authenticity and fault tolerance. Besides the specification, development of prototypes and testing of the SAS-P2P system, tests of the PKIX-P2P Manager module were also performed, in order to determine its fault tolerance and the effective calculation of the reputation of the certifying authorities participating in the system / Trabalhos anteriores estudaram caracter?sticas e peculiaridades das redes P2P, especialmente no que se refere aos aspectos de seguran?a da informa??o. A maioria dos trabalhos aborda, de alguma maneira, o compartilhamento de recursos e, em especial, o armazenamento de arquivos. Este trabalho complementa estudos anteriores e acrescenta novas defini??es referentes a este tipo de sistemas. Foi especificado e constru?do um sistema de armazenamento seguro baseado na tecnologia P2P (SAS-P2P), utilizando a plataforma JXTA. Tal sistema utiliza certificados digitais padr?o X.509 e PKCS#12 (RSA 1999), emitidos e gerenciados por uma infraestrutura de chaves p?blicas, que tamb?m foi especificada e constru?da baseada na tecnologia P2P (PKIX-P2P). As informa??es s?o armazenadas no sistema SAS-P2P em arquivos no formato XML que ? especialmente preparado, facilitando a manipula??o e interoperabilidade entre aplica??es. O sistema SAS-P2P foi desenvolvido com o intuito de ser oferecido como um servi?o complementar da rede GigaNatal, atrav?s do qual os participantes dessa rede possam, colaborativamente, construir uma ?rea de armazenamento compartilhada com importantes recursos de seguran?a como disponibilidade, confidencialidade, autenticidade e toler?ncia a falhas. Al?m da especifica??o, constru??o e experimentos do sistema SAS-P2P como um todo, tamb?m foram realizados testes do m?dulo PKIX-P2P no que se refere ? toler?ncia a falhas e c?lculo efetivo da reputa??o das autoridades certificadoras participantes do sistema

This research used, as the basis of assertions, Security Standard ISO 27001:2005 and theoretical model based on TAM (Technology Acceptance Model) from Venkatesh and Davis (2000). The method adopted was field research of national scope with participation of eighty public administrators from states of Brazil, all of them managers and planners of state governments. The approach was quantitative and research methods were descriptive statistics, factor analysis and multiple linear regression for data analysis. The survey results showed correlation between the constructs of the TAM model (ease of use, perceptions of value, attitude and intention to use) and agreement with the assertions made in accordance with ISO 27001, showing that these factors influence the managers in adoption of such practices. On the other independent variables of the model (organizational profile, demographic profile and managers behavior) no significant correlation was identified with the assertions of the same standard, witch means the need for expansion researches using such constructs. It is hoped that this study may contribute positively to the progress on discussions about Information Security Management, Adoption of Safety Standards and Technology Acceptance Model / Este estudo analisa os fatores que influenciam os gestores p?blicos na ado??o de pr?ticas van?adas de Gest?o de Seguran?a da Informa??o. A pesquisa utilizou como base assertivas a Norma de Seguran?a ISO 27001:2005 e modelo te?rico baseado no TAM (Technology Acceptance Model) descrito em Venkatesh e Davis (2000). O m?todo adotado foi a esquisa de campo de alcance nacional que contou com a participa??o de oitenta gestores p?blicos dos Estados do Brasil, sendo todos coordenadores na ?rea de gest?o e planejamento dos governos estaduais. A abordagem da pesquisa foi quantitativa e foram utilizados m?todos de estat?stica descritiva, an?lise fatorial e regress?o linear m?ltipla para an?lise dos dados. Os resultados da pesquisa apresentaram correla??o entre os construtos do modelo TAM (facilidade na utiliza??o, percep??o sobre a utilidade, atitude e inten??o de utiliza??o) e a concord?ncia com as assertivas elaboradas de acordo com a norma ISO 27001, demonstrando que estes fatores influenciam os gestores na ado??o de tais pr?ticas. J? as outras vari?veis independentes do modelo (perfil organizacional, perfil demogr?fico e comportamental dos gestores) n?o tiveram correla??o significante com as assertivas da referida norma, demonstrando necessidade de amplia??o de pesquisas com utiliza??o de tais construtos. Espera-se que este estudo possa contribuir de forma positiva ao avan?o nas discuss?es sobre o tema Gest?o de Seguran?a da Informa??o e Ado??o de Normas de Seguran?a, bem como, Modelos de Aceita??o de Tecnologia
