As expetativas e exigências crescentes dos cidadãos face ao serviço público introduziram uma nova orientação nos processos de reforma e modernização administrativa. É neste contexto que surge o modelo de autoavaliação Common Assessment Framework (CAF), que está essencialmente direcionado para a administração pública, com o fim de promover a melhoria contínua dos serviços. Neste estudo pretende-se analisar a aplicabilidade da CAF como ferramenta de autoavaliação dos serviços públicos nos Serviços Académicos da Universidade de Évora (SAC), bem como verificar o impacto que a aplicação da CAF teve nos SAC, após o estudo realizado por Nogueira (2008), e efetuar um diagnóstico junto dos alunos, colaboradores e gestores para avaliar os processos desenvolvidos, bem como averiguar o seu grau de satisfação. Para atingir os objetivos propostos foi aplicado um inquérito por questionário junto dos alunos, colaboradores e gestores dos SAC. Os resultados obtidos permitiram extrair os pontos fortes (e.g. bons procedimentos para acolhimento e integração dos colaboradores, gestores não resistentes à mudança), evidenciar os pontos fracos (e.g. tempo de obtenção de respostas às solicitações efetuadas, atendimento telefónico desadequado), e enumerar as sugestões de melhoria para o serviço (e.g. maior número de funcionários a fazer atendimento, horários de abertura e de atendimento mais alargados); ABSTRACT: Expectations and increased demands of citizens on the public service introduced a new orientation in the reform and administrative modernization. lt is in this context that the model of self-assessment Common Assessment Framework (CAF), which is primarily directed to the government, in order to promote continuous improvement of services. This study aims to analyze the applicability of the CAF as a self-assessment tool of public services at the Academic Services of the University of Évora (SAC) and verify the impact that the implementation of the CAF had the SAC after the study by Nogueira (2008) and make a diagnosis with the students, employees and managers to assess the processes developed and ascertain their degree of satisfaction. To achieve the proposed objectives a questionnaire was applied to students, employees and managers of SAC. The results allowed to draw on the strengths (eg: good procedures for reception and integration of employees, not resistant to change managers), highlight the weaknesses (eg: time to obtain answers to made requests, inadequate telephone service), and list suggestions improvement for the service (eg: greater number of employees to service, opening hours and more extensive service).
Resumo:
Effective management of invasive fishes depends on the availability of updated information about their distribution and spatial dispersion. Forensic analysis was performed using online and published data on the European catfish, Silurus glanis L., a recent invader in the Tagus catchment (Iberian Peninsula). Eighty records were obtained mainly from anglers’ fora and blogs, and more recently from www.youtube.com. Since the first record in 1998, S. glanis expanded its geographic range by 700 km of river network, occurring mainly in reservoirs and in high-order reaches. Human-mediated and natural dispersal events were identified, with the former occurring during the first years of invasion and involving movements of >50 km. Downstream dispersal directionality was predominant. The analysis of online data from anglers was found to provide useful information on the distribution and dispersal patterns of this non-native fish, and is potentially applicable as a preliminary, exploratory assessment tool for other non-native fishes.
