Regulação estatal do setor nuclear: estudo comparativo dos modelos da Argentina e do Brasil

Este estudo apresenta uma análise comparativa dos modelos de regulação dos setores nucleares da Argentina - a cargo da Autoridad Regulatoria Nuclear (ARN), e do Brasil- sob a responsabilidade da Comissão Nacional de Energia Nuclear (CNEN), que procura identificar, por meio de critérios de análise selecionados a partir do referencial teórico, qual modelo é o mais adequado objetivando o uso seguro da energia nuclear. O Capítulo I apresenta uma breve descrição dos modelos de regulação dos setores nucleares do Brasil e da Argentina, bem como os objetivos, a delimitação do estudo e a relevância da pesquisa. O referencial teórico, Capítulo 2, contém tópicos sobre a reforma do Estado, os tipos de regulação, a regulação no Brasil e as características do setor nuclear internacional e brasileiro. A seguir, foram selecionados critérios de análise que correspondem às características das agências reguladoras brasileiras criadas para outros setores da economia, no bojo da reforma de Estado implementada no Brasil a partir de meados dos anos 90. Posteriormente, estes critérios de análise foram utilizados como parâmetros de comparação entre os modelos de regulação dos setores nucleares da Argentina e do Brasil. A metodologia de pesquisa é descrita no Capítulo 3, definindo-se o tipo de pesquisa, o universo e a amostra, a forma de coleta e tratamento dos dados e as limitações do método empregado. No Capítulo 4 é descrito o modelo de regulação do setor nuclear argentino, apresentando-se também um breve histórico sobre a criação da ARN. O Capítulo 5 apresenta a descrição do modelo de regulação do setor nuclear brasileiro, os estudos e recomendações existentes sobre a regulação do setor e os resultados da pesquisa empírica realizada junto aos servidores da CNEN. Com base na análise comparativa, Capítulo 6, pode-se concluir, Capítulo 7, que a estrutura regulatória e fiscalizadora do setor nuclear argentino, sob responsabilidade da ARN, mostra-se mais adequada no que tange ao uso seguro da energia nuclear, do que o modelo adotado no Brasil pela CNEN, pois incorpora os critérios de independência funcional, institucional e financeira, definição de competências, excelência técnica e transparência, necessários ao desempenho de suas funções de forma autônoma, ética, isenta e ágil.

Investimento na Preservação do Meio Ambiente no Setor de Cosméticos: Relevância Atribuída pelos clientes de o Boticário e sua percepção quanto à conduta da Empresa

In spite of the environmental consumerism in Brazil not to meet in levels as advanced as in Europe and in the United States, some sectors are emerging as precursors of environmental relationships with their markets. Cosmetic's sector is one of them. This study discusses the subject of the ethical consumerism, especially the environmental one. It is focused in the consumer-citizen's context, more specifically in the consumer of a company of cosmetic's sector in Rio de Janeiro. To carry out this study, we chose a company that clearly assumed its commitment with the investment in the preservation of the environment: O Boticário. Initially, we investigated the relevance attributed by the customers of O Boticário to the investment accomplished in the search by the preservation of the environment by companies of this sector, comparing these results with the importance that has been imputed by the customers to traditional attributes of the Marketing. Later, we have analyzed these customers' perception in respect of the investment accomplished by the company in the search for the preservation of the environment. In the preliminary phase of the research, fourteen customers of O Boticário were interviewed. A structured questionnaire was applied to 90 respondents that have declared themselves customers of the mentioned company. The information were treated with descriptive statistics. The software employed has been the SPSS 10.0. Although the field research has indicated the characteristics of the product as priority for the consumer, the relevance attributed to the investment of the company in the search for the preservation of the environment was considered significant, with more prominence than some attributes traditionally judged as attributes-key of the Marketing. However, this apparent sensibility for the environmental subject doesn't seem to influence in search of information on environmental conduct of cosmetics' companies. In fact, a great deal of customers of O Boticário has declared that they have been unknowing about the conduct in favor of the environment on the part of the company, and a number, even larger, was not aware of the existence of the Fundação O Boticário de Proteção à Natureza.

Comércio internacional, politica comercial brasileira e a atuação da Câmara de Comércio Exterior (CAMEX) na condução das políticas para o setor

The proposal of this study is to present an assessment of the performance of the Brazilian Government Chamber of Foreign Trade (Camex), which is a board of the Council of Government responsible for the formulation, implementation and coordination of the Brazilian trade policy. The study begins with a historical approach to the international trade and the Brazilian foreign trade, mentioning its origins, features and interfaces with the economic development of the country. Based on the approach aforementioned, several interviews were made with authorities, who have remarkable knowledge about the subject, in order to obtain their views, experiences and suggestions concerning the performance of Camex since its creation in 1995. The list of interviewees includes authorities that are currently responsibles for the conduct of the policy on foreign trade, representatives of the organized society, and authorities who were in important positions in this segment of the federal public administration, regarding both the Minister of State, as Director of Cacex and the Executive Secretary of Camex. The conclusions of the study indicate that the Camex has not been succeeding in fully exercise its mandate of formulate, implement and coordinate the foreign trade policy of Brazil. A combination of factors contributes to this situation, especially its small strutcure, the fact that some ministries compete in the segment of foreign trade ¿don't understand¿ Chamber¿s real purpose, and, at last, the absence of a political mandate"(words taken from Motta Veiga) that would fortify its existing legal mandate. Finally, the study suggests some changes in the current organizational modeling of Camex, especially in its hierarchical position in the federal public administration."

Dimensionamento de equipes baseado em modelos de previsão, simulação e alocação : caso de uma empresa do setor elétrico

O bom dimensionamento de equipes contribui para o aumento do nível dos serviços prestados pelas empresas, com o menor custo possível. Uma alternativa para abordar a questão foi dimensionar as equipes de eletricistas, de uma empresa do setor elétrico, (utilizando técnicas de previsão de demanda, de simulação e de alocação) para atender de forma otimizada, a demanda variável das atividades prestadas - fornecimento de energia. Um equilíbrio entre a demanda por serviços e a capacidade de execução da empresa evitaria longas filas de espera dos clientes e servidores (eletricistas) ociosos. Cinco etapas forma cumpridas: fase exploratória, coleta de dados, previsão de demanda e simulação do processo e alocação do recurso. Na primeira houve um entendimento de como chegava o pedido do serviço na empresa até a finalização da ordem de serviço. Na coleta de dados foram levantados aproximadamente 80 tipos diferentes de atividades desenvolvidas pelos eletricistas e classificadas de acordo com a prioridade de urgência, prazos de atendimento dos serviços e afinidade de execução das tarefas. Nesta etapa ainda foram coletados os volumes de serviços gerados e tempos médios de deslocamento e execução das atividades. Na terceira etapa foi utilizado um software de previsão de demanda chamado Forecast Pro, possibilitando a escolha automática do modelo de previsão mais apropriado para a série histórica em estudo. Na quarta etapa, foi utilizado um software de simulação de processos chamado Arena. Desenvolveu-se um modelo do processo real com os respectivos dados de entrada dos serviços, tempos de deslocamento e execução e número de equipes. Na última etapa, utilizando a ferramenta Solver do Excel otimizou-se o número de equipes. Um dos resultados da ação foi obter vários cenários com a variação do número de equipes e seus respectivos tempos médios de atendimento, sem causar nenhum dano para a empresa, podendo assim ser analisado qual o melhor cenário para ser implementado na companhia, minimizando o problema.

Estratégia em produtos culturais: estudo de caso de empresa ex-estatal do setor de telecomunicações

In the 1990, and after the process of privatizations of governmental companies in Brazil, cultural products had gained strategical importance for different types of organizations, specially for nationalized companies of the telecommunications sector. Based on the concept of market orientation, and specifically on the concept of cultural marketing, it is possible to understand the approximation between companies and cultural products restrictedly in the level of products and services. However, there has been little questioning about the concept of market orientation and the marginalization of plural and critical approaches which leaves gaps in the understanding of this approximation. Based in other areas of knowledge which understand this approximation between companies and cultural products and based in studies that present critics about the market forces it is possible to recognize the strategical corporative level of cultural products. Based in specific approaches in strategy, and defending pluralism and interdisciplinary research, it is possible to fill this gaps in the marketing literature. Specifically, in this study, are presented approaches that recognize the dimensions of power, politics and symbolism that influence strategies and are responsible for the approximation between these strategies and cultural products. Especially in Brazil, these debates are central, since in a context composed by nationalized companies many ambiguities are common. With this objective, a case study about a telecommunications sector company that has importance in the investment in cultural products is presented. From this case study, based on primary and secondary data, it is possible to comprehend the strategy in cultural products.

A implantação de uma universidade corporativa no setor público: o estudo de caso da escola de contas e gestão do tribunal de contas do Estado do Rio de Janeiro

The present research comprehends a case study, through which we analyzed the Programa de Implantação da Escola de Contas do Tribunal de Contas do Estado do Rio de Janeiro - Program of Implantation of the School of Public Finance of the Public Finance Court of the State of Rio de Janeiro - as a progressive educational strategy from the model of corporate university, considering the ten key components (steps) identified by Meister (1999) in his research. The qualitative approach has proved the most adequate for this study, as, regarding data interpretation and investigation process, the subjectivity of the researcher was taken into account, since he himself was designated to the Commission of Implantation of the School of Public Finance and is, presently, general Academic Coordinator of the Escola de Contas e Gestão (ECG) - School of Public Finance and Management, the main goal (product) of the mentioned program. As to the results, the study has shown that the Tribunal de Contas do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (TCE-RJ) has not equally emphasized the ten key components (steps) for the success in the construction of a corporate university, but none of them was neglected. Considering the way it presently works, it is also concluded that the ECG is relevant for the actuation of the TCE-RJ, but is not yet as connected to the performance as it should be. Fundamentally, the ECG still has to develop a personnel development system driven by personnel management through competences, performing a diagnosis of the essential organizational competences, mapping the existing ones, identifying the breaches and analyzing which of theses competences may be developed by means of their activities. Likewise, the ECG also needs to develop a methodology to assess the result as well as the impact of its activities. These circumstances, however, will be used to guide future studies and represent a new starting point.

Competitividade nacional e industrial: o setor siderúrgico em questão

o presente trabalho é um estudo sobre competitividade industrial. Desenvolve um referencial teórico, no qual discute diferentes abordagens sobre o tema e a importância da existência de empresas competitivas globalmente para o desenvolvimento econômico dos seus países de origem. Como objeto de análise, avalia a performance competitiva do setor siderúrgico brasileiro, num contexto de crescente globalização, identificando os principais fatores que exercem influência sobre a mesma. A indústria siderúrgica brasileira é considerada como uma das mais competitivas do mundo. Para isso, contribuíram o plano de incentivo para o desenvolvimento do setor, promovido pelo governo, ainda no período em que esse detinha o controle acionário das principais siderúrgicas nacionais e, posteriormente, o processo de privatização, que trouxe consigo uma gestão mais profissionalizada para essas empresas, além de maiores possibilidades de investimentos, através de recursos privados. Como fatores inibidores da competitividade para o setor siderúrgico, o presente estudo destaca a deficiência na infra-estrutura brasileira, especificamente em logística e energia elétrica; as barreiras protecionistas, impostas por outros países produtores, à importação do aço e a incidência de impostos em cascata sobre os produtos siderúrgicos.
