Relatório de estágio na Caixa Geral de Depósitos

This report will describe the activities undertaken during my internship at the Personnel Department (DPE-UPE4.1) in Caixa Geral de Depósitos (CGD), Lisbon, between September 22, 2014, and February 28, 2015. I consider that it is important to note from the outset i) that the subject of my training was suggested by my supervisor in the DPE and accepted by me; and ii) that the internship consisted essentially of carrying out research and information gathering into the different social systems that coexist within the bank and the application of each legal system in solving concrete situations of the CGD employees. The research and analysis of information was important not only for my study but for the CGD itself, as it enables the department to have such an important matter, full of specific characteristics, condensed into a single document, i.e. this report. This is a complex reality. The various welfare systems differ according to the contractual agreement linking the employee to the employer at the date when the labour contract is signed, and also the unique/singular characteristics of the CGD. In the early stage I started by trying to understand the financial institution and its organization and role and the department where I worked. So I analyzed the CGD Statutes and the legal measures that crystallized the scheme for its employees and I also researched its domestic and international operations. The first month was devoted to the research and analysis of such legislation to understand the creation of the CGD and its path to date. In the second and third months I studied the legal social systems that are applied to different groups of CGD workers. This period was quite important to identify and understand the differences between those regimes of CGD employees as well as the procedure inherent in each case. I highlighted the non-implementation of “the social protection regime of convergence” to the workers of this institution; the differences regarding the allocation of sickness subsidies paid to workers who belong to Social Security and CGA contributors, as well as the enforcement of internal rules to all the workers when a work-related accident happens. Then I focused on to assessing and examining external legislation and several internal regulations in order to obtain solutions to questions raised and situations involving by the workers, in order to understand how the DPE solves these situations. Over the last three months of internship, after this more theoretical work, I began the analysis of concrete situations involving employees carrying out their duties in Portugal and abroad. Some of these situations had been received by the department before the beginning of my internship and others over this period. When I was “working” in the DPE I analyzed “cases” that had been solved and some others without a final solution because they were still in courts. As for the last ones (new cases) I was able to follow their assessment and sometimes their outcome. Some of them became study cases for me. Over these five months of my internship, several cases were analyzed and discussed by legal experts of DPE in which I could participate. I always worked hard. I know that this action contributed to elucidate me about the treatment of the issues, and allowed me to have a direct contact with some workers and be part of a dynamic work team. For these reasons, my internship report is not merely descriptive of activities. It consists of an analysis of rules (legislation) and a regulatory framework of activities and it is also a description of several specific situations solved or in a solution process. Through this work I intend to make known the particular reality of a modern Portuguese financial institution not only because of its importance in our country but also such a large number of employees work here (in Portugal and abroad). I should add that throughout my internship I was allowed to attend conferences, within the scope of the bank in order to get a broader view of some issues related to the daily life of the DPE and the CGD. So, I participated in I Jornadas Bancárias and the Conferência Internacional do Contrato a Termo, given that the CGD is a bank and the DPE deals with legal and labour relations.

Indicadores de qualidade para a contratualização de cuidados paliativos

RESUMO - Âmbito e objectivos: O presente trabalho incide sobre a área dos cuidados paliativos, nomeadamente, visa contribuir para uma maior efectividade do processo de aquisição e acompanhamento deste tipo de cuidados. Neste contexto, e como objectivo principal do estudo, foram identificados os indicadores chave, na vertente da qualidade, indispensáveis para a conceptualização de um modelo de contratualização e, consequentemente, para assegurar a monitorização, acompanhamento e avaliação da actividade realizada. Método e metodologias: Numa primeira fase, foi conduzida uma pesquisa documental tendente ao levantamento dos indicadores, na dimensão da qualidade, em utilização nos cuidados paliativos em vários países, tendo sido escolhidos aqueles que apresentavam indicadores já validados, designadamente, o Canadá, Reino Unido, Austrália, Espanha e EUA. Desta forma, foram seleccionados os indicadores comuns aos vários países estudados, para efeitos de discussão e consensualização, no âmbito de uma Técnica de Grupo Nominal, passíveis de integrarem um modelo de contratualização nesta área em Portugal. Apresentação e discussão de resultados: Da pesquisa documental resultaram 188 indicadores na dimensão qualidade, em utilização nos países estudados, tendo sido identificados 19 indicadores comuns. Estes indicadores foram submetidos a discussão e consensualização em reunião de peritos, tendo sido hierarquizados os sete indicadores mais adequados para a contratualização em cuidados paliativos: composição de uma equipa interdisciplinar; capacidade de resposta doentes tratados/pedido de acesso; avaliação inicial e periódica das necessidades (oito domínios); acessibilidade farmacológica; congruência entre os cuidados prestados e os desejados; prática regular de reuniões multidisciplinares; conferência familiar, pelo menos 2 vezes. Conclusões: No panorama nacional, não se conhecem indicadores unanimemente ratificados como adequados à avaliação da efectividade, qualidade e eficiência dos cuidados paliativos. Por outro lado, atento o objectivo do presente trabalho, a informação recolhida a nível internacional devolveu indicadores aplicáveis maioritariamente num contexto da avaliação da prestação dos cuidados paliativos, e Indicadores de Qualidade para a Contratualização de Cuidados Paliativos em Portugal x/ 93 não tanto num contexto de um processo de contratualização efectivo. Assim, partindo destes indicadores, em utilização nos vários países estudados, o estudo permitiu identificar sete indicadores considerados como adequados para a contratualização destes cuidados, em Portugal. -------------- ABSTRACT - Scope and objectives: This work focuses on the palliative care area, in particular, aims to contribute to greater effectiveness of the monitoring and procurement process of this type of care. In this context, as the main objective of the study, key indicators were identified regarding the quality issue, crucial to the conceptualization of a contracting model, and consequently to ensure the monitoring, supervising and evaluating of the undertaken activities. Method and methodology: Initially, a documentary research was held. That research aimed to surveying the indicators in their dimension of quality, regarding their use in palliative care throughout several countries. The chosen countries already had validated indicators, namely, Canada, United Kingdom , Australia, Spain and the USA. Thus, the indicators selected were common to all the above mentioned countries, for discussion purposes and agreement, as part of a Nominal Group Technique, that could integrate a model of contracting in this area in Portugal. Presentation and result discussion: The documentary research resulted in 188 quality indicators in use in the referred countries, 19 of those indicators were common to all countries. These indicators were submitted for discussion and agreement at a meeting of experts, having been ranked the seven most appropriate indicators for palliative care contracting: composition of an interdisciplinary team; response ability to the patients / access requests, initial and periodic assessment of the needs (eight areas), pharmacology accessibility; congruence between the desired care and its effective provision and regular practice of multidisciplinary meetings, family conferences, at least two times. Conclusions: In the national scene, unanimously ratified as suitable indicators to assess the effectiveness, efficiency and quality of palliative care are unknown. On other hand, given the objective of this work, the international collection of information has given applicable indicators mostly in the context of assessing the provision of palliative care, rather than an effective contracting process context. Thus, based on these indicators in use in the studied countries, the study itself identified seven indicators considered appropriate for the contracting of such care in Portugal.
