As boas práticas de gestão ambiental e a influência no desempenho exportador : um estudo sobre as grandes empresas exportadoras brasileiras / Best environmental management practices and the influence in the export performance : a study on the great Brazilian exporters

Hrdlicka, Hermann Atila 13 August 2009 (has links)
Dois temas de interesse nacional se destacam: a preocupação com o meio ambiente e o processo de internacionalização de empresas brasileiras. O primeiro deles explora a sustentabilidade do planeta, com recorrente alusão às externalidades negativas provocadas pelos negócios e o consumo de uma sociedade global e afluente. No segundo, noticia-se a respeito do sucesso e contribuição das exportações como alavanca do desenvolvimento do país. A respeito desses dois temas uma pergunta se apresenta: seria pertinente explicar que o atual sucesso de nossas exportações possui influências fundamentadas na responsabilidade ambiental, em particular as práticas de gestão ambiental na corporação exportadora? Assim, a intenção deste estudo foi verificar empiricamente se as boas práticas de gestão ambiental influenciavam o sucesso nas exportações das grandes empresas exportadoras brasileiras listadas em publicação especializada. O estudo foi dividido em duas fases: na primeira, fundamentado na teoria, desenvolveu-se um modelo teórico utilizando a metodologia de modelagem de equações estruturais, para ser confirmado através de pesquisa de campo. Por intermédio de questionários preenchidos pelos responsáveis pelas áreas de gestão ambiental e exportações escolhidos por conveniência, 59 empresas melhor posicionadas, por valor exportado, participaram no levantamento dentre diversos setores,abrangendo operações no período 2005 a 2007. Os principais resultados evidenciam que as empresas participantes na pesquisa apresentam certa maturidade na condução dos negócios pensando na sustentabilidade ambiental, dentre outros pontos fortes. Porém foram percebidas fraquezas como: não se valem da rotulagem ambiental para comunicar seu compromisso ambiental; poucas utilizam a análise de ciclo de vida (ACV), ou comparam resultados ambientais com seus pares ou outros setores econômicos; a grande preocupação dessas empresas é adaptar ambientalmente os produtos exportados às exigências legais dos países importadores. No desenvolvimento da modelagem foi usado o software SmartPLS que se baseia em equações estruturais; a associação (no caso influência) direta entre o constructo Boas Práticas e o Sucesso Exportações apresentou correlação negativa, portanto foi desprezada. Foi testada variável moderadora que explicou a influência indireta entre os efeitos das boas práticas de gestão ambiental com os investimentos de P&D e promoção, com alto grau de confiabilidade interna e razoável significância. / Two themes of national interest stand out: the concern with the environment and the process of internationalization of Brazilian companies. The first explores the sustainability of our planet, with appealing allusion to the negative externalities provoked by businesses and consumption of a global and flowing society. In the second, regards the success and contribution of exports as a lever of the development of a country. From these two issues a question arises: do corporation´s environmental responsibility influences the current export firms? The aim of this study is to verify empirically if the best practices of environmental administration influences the success of the greater Brazilian exporter. The study was divided in two phases: in the first, based in the literature theory, a theoretical model was build using the structural equations modeling methodology, to be confirmed through field research (the second phase). Questionnaires filled out by the responsible by the areas of environmental administration and exports department chosen by convenience, 59 companies better positioned, by exported amount in the period 2005 to 2007. The main results evidences that the participant companies in the research present certain environmental sustainability in the business context among other strong points. However there are weaknesses as: companies are not been worth of the environmental label to communicate environmental commitment; too few firms use the life-cycle analysis (LCA), or too few also compare environmental results with their pairs or companies from other economical sections; the great concern of those companies is to adapt environmentally the products exported obeying to the legal demands of the countries importers. In the development of the modeling the software SmartPLS was used to build structural equations models; results show that there are no direct influence between environmental best practices construct and the export success: it was found negative correlation; therefore it was despised. A new test was conducted under a variable moderator that explained the indirect influence among the effects of the good practices of environmental administration with the R&D investments and promotion, with high reliability and reasonable significance.

Dentre os setores que se apresentam no rol das indústrias com alta geração de resíduos sólidos, efluentes líquidos e emissão gasosas em suas operações produtivas está a indústria frigorífica de bovinos. Maior exportadora mundial de carne bovina, esta indústria tem o desafio de: i) produzir alimentos com garantia de qualidade e segurança microbiana; e ii) garantir que o processo produtivo seja inovador a ponto de proporcionar sustentabilidade e diminuição dos impactos ambientais. Frente a este contexto, este trabalho objetivou elaborar um constructo metodológico quantitativo para auxiliar as empresas pertencentes à indústria frigorífica de bovinos a avaliarem seu desempenho ambiental de forma ampla. Trata-se de um trabalho quantitativo subdividido em três etapas metodológicas sendo: aprofundamento da teoria de Avaliação de Desempenho Ambiental, mapeamento do processo produtivo de bovinos, e elaboração do constructo metodológico. Como resultado criou-se um constructo que contempla 31 indicadores agrupados em 6 aspectos, poderados a partir do método AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process), mensurados através de escalas de avaliação específicas. A título de exemplificação, o constructo foi aplicado em duas empresas do setor. / The environmental impacts caused by productive operations have been increasingly discussed in the most diverse social spheres. Among the sectors that appear in the list of industries with high generation of solid waste, liquid effluents and gaseous emissions in their productive operations is the cattle industry. As the world's largest exporter of beef, this industry has the challenge of: i) producing food with quality assurance and microbial safety; and ii) ensure that the production process is innovative to the point of providing sustainability and reducing environmental impacts. Thus, this study aimed to elaborate a quantitative methodological construct to help beef industry companies to evaluate their environmental performance in a broad way. It is a quantitative study subdivided into three methodological stages: deepening of the theory of Environmental Performance Evaluation, mapping of the productive process of beef, and elaboration of the methodological construct. As a result, the study has created a construct that contemplates 31 indicators grouped in six aspects, weighted by the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method, measured through specific evaluation scales. As an example, the study applied the construct to two companies in the sector.
