A procura incessante de novas ferramentas de gestão como forma de solucionar dificuldades financeiras sem a perda do nível de qualidade esperado da população, tem sido uma constante nas instituições que prestam cuidados de saúde. Entre os referidos instrumentos de gestão distinguimos o Balanced Scorecard que tem tido um relevante foco de interesse para diversos tipos de organizações, incluindo as prestadoras de cuidados de saúde. Neste sentido, pretendemos com este trabalho analisar o âmbito da aplicação do BSC nas instituições hospitalares, procurando, através da realização de um estudo de caso, desenvolver um esboço de um BSC no Serviço de Urgência de um hospital classificado como Entidade Pública Empresarial.

A procura incessante de novas ferramentas e técnicas de gestão como forma de solucionar dificuldades financeiras sem a perda do nível de qualidade esperado da população, tem sido uma constante nas instituições que prestam cuidados de saúde em todo o mundo. A empresarialização dos hospitais visa, essencialmente, a implementação e o aperfeiçoamento de instrumentos de gestão já amplamente utilizados no sector privado. Entre os referidos instrumentos de gestão, distinguimos o Balanced Scorecard (BSC), que tem tido um relevante foco de interesse para diversos tipos de organizações, incluindo as prestadoras de cuidados de saúde. Neste sentido, pretendemos com este trabalho analisar o âmbito da aplicação do BSC nas instituições prestadoras de cuidados de saúde, procurando, através da realização de um estudo de caso, desenvolver um esboço de um BSC num hospital EPE.

The innovation contributes to business success and increased competitive advantage, one of the concepts that has deserved more attention among researchers in the field of management. Innovation is not exclusive of tangible products or services and can naturally extend to the process itself, the organization or marketing. Although it is not easy to gather a universal concept for innovation, do not seem to be no doubt that its importance is such that allows the company to build on the foundations of this future development, regardless of past success. This work has as its central purpose the study of process innovation in the supply outlook for tourism, given its importance in achieving business success. The recognition of its value assumes it as a challenge, making it necessary to distinguish with product, marketing and organizational innovation, either in substance or in the organizational competencies. Will be presented in this work, a brief description (as well as evolution of the concept) as a way of contextualizing and, then, clarified the distinction between the concepts process innovation and innovation process. Search will bring together the key distinguishing features from the perspective of tourism as a means of achieving competitive advantage for business. We will also discuss implications for management and future studies.

Aunque en el contexto internacional sea muy estudiada, en Portugal la utilización de la información económico-financiera en el hospital público es un tema de investigación reciente. Nuestro trabajo está basado en un estudio de caso y tiene como objetivo aclarar si los profesionales que tienen poder de decisión sobre los recursos dentro del hospital, en particular los médicos y los cargos de jefe, usan la información económico-financiera disponible y cuáles son los factores que condicionan su utilización de esta información. Los resultados indican que la consulta de la información económico-financiera no es una práctica común para la generalidad de los médicos y jefes dentro del hospital, aunque un porcentaje importante de profesionales ya la integró en su rutina. El análisis estadístico confirmó solo dos de nuestras hipótesis. Por consiguiente, creemos que además de las variables explicativas identificadas en nuestro estudio, hay espacio para que futuras investigaciones identifiquen otros factores que explican la utilización de la información contable por parte de los profesionales de la salud.

In the category of Hom-Leibniz algebras we introduce the notion of Hom-corepresentation as adequate coefficients to construct the chain complex from which we compute the Leibniz homology of Hom-Leibniz algebras. We study universal central extensions of Hom-Leibniz algebras and generalize some classical results, nevertheless it is necessary to introduce new notions of α-central extension, universal α-central extension and α-perfect Hom-Leibniz algebra due to the fact that the composition of two central extensions of Hom-Leibniz algebras is not central. We also provide the recognition criteria for these kind of universal central extensions. We prove that an α-perfect Hom-Lie algebra admits a universal α-central extension in the categories of Hom-Lie and Hom-Leibniz algebras and we obtain the relationships between both of them. In case α = Id we recover the corresponding results on universal central extensions of Leibniz algebras.

Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are among the most costly health problems that society is facing today. Prevention involves investments and it is important for organizations to make a cost ebenefit analysis of ergonomic projects. Return on prevention is a recent concern in the domain of occupational safety and health (OSH). There are many studies concerning the return on the prevention of WMSDs, in terms of the benefits for the organization in which the preventive measures are implemented. However, it is also important to perform an analysis of the impact of each measure on society (externalities). A model to perform a financial and economic costebenefit analysis related to OSH projects was developed and it was applied in the case of the prevention of WMSDs in a Portuguese hospital. An analysis of the accidents and corresponding costs has been made in six of the services of the hospital. Financial and an economic costebenefit analysis have been made and the benefitecost ratio (B/C) has been calculated. While the B/C financial ratio, considering only the benefits to the hospital, is around 2, the economic B/C ratio, taking into account all the external benefits that have been quantified, is higher than 14. Relevance to industry: Both the economic and the financial B/C ratio are important support tools for decision makers in public and private organizations, helping them to define which preventive measures should be implemented, taking into account the costs involved and the resulting quantified benefits, for the organization, for the workers and for the society.

BACKGROUND: When an organization performs an integrated analysis of risks through its Occupational Health and Safety Management System, several steps are suggested to address the implications of the identified risks. Namely, the organization should make a detailed analysis of the monetary impact for the organization of each of the preventive measures considered. However, it is also important to perform an analysis of the impact of each measure on society (externalities). OBJECTIVE: The aim of this paper is to present a case study related to the application of the proposed economic evaluation methodology. METHODS: An analysis of the work accidents in a hospital has been made. Three of the major types of accidents have been selected: needle stings, falls and excessive strain. Following the risk assessment, some preventive measures have been designed. Subsequently, the Benefit/Cost ratio (B/C) of these measures has been calculated, both in financial terms (from the organization’s perspective) and in economic terms (including the benefits for the worker and for the Society). RESULTS: While the financial ratio is only advantageous in some cases, when the externalities are taken into account, the B/C ratio increases significantly. CONCLUSIONS: It is important to consider external benefits to make decisions concerning the implementation of preventive measures in Occupational Health and Safety projects
