This article presents a discussion about the fetishism of the intellectual capital, analysing the ideology of knowledge and the need of adaptation of the worker in connection with the restructuring of capital in recent decades. We analyze the emergence of this ideology - through the concepts of knowledge society, information society, intellectual capital, among others - in some authors of the area human resource management, following it presents the critique of this notion based on the analysis of some authors of critical social thought. Finally we position ourselves in order to assert that this is a new version of fetishism in the time of globalization of the capital.

Prevalência de acidentes com material biológico em um município do noroeste de São Paulo, Brasil, no período de 2007 a 2011

The objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of reports of accidents involving biological material which affected health professionals, especially dental health ones, in a city in the north­western region of São Paulo State, Brazil. Data collection was con­ducted through the notification of accidents with biological material from 2007 to 2011. There were 377 notifications, in which 353 (93.6%) had female professionals involved. The most reported type of exposure was the percutaneous in 359 cases (95.2%) followed by blood in 334 cases (88.6%) which is the most mentioned biological material in the reports. Only 21 (5.6%) notifications were from den­tal staff and occurred mostly with the dentist, 14 times (66.7%) and 16 times (76.2%) during clinical procedures. The prevalence of bio­logical accidents among dental teams was little in this time, which suggests the possibility of underreporting, in addition to being sub­ject to the partial fulfillment of the same.

Treinamento ambiental:revisão de literatura e sugestões de pesquisa

This article aims to list the studies on environmental training published in the Scopus and Web of Science databases, to emphasize the publications most relevant according to the number of citations in other research, list the most prominent authors regarding the topic, the contexts studied and the researcher’s countries of origin. The concepts of environmental management and environmental training were reviewed. The systematic literature review is presented as the methodology, which has as its results the identification of the most influential papers studied in the area, the countries of origin of researchers and the relation between context and origin of the researcher, concluding that Brazil stands out in the study of the theme. That there is a small number of researchers studying different contexts in their country of origin and that partnership between researchers from different countries are required for studies in the area. The study presents as a limitation the still restricted access to some journals presenting articles on the topic, making it impossible to analyze them.

A formação do nutricionista para atuação no SUS: um olhar sobre a produção científica obrigatória dos cursos do Rio Grande do Norte

The National Curricular Guidelines for nutrition course predict training directed to the work in the Unified Health System (SUS) and the mandatory completion of course work. The aim of this study was to analyze the formation of dieticians in Rio Grande do Norte state/Brazil to work in the SUS, from the compulsory scientific production provided for training. This is a bibliometric study, quantitative approach, performed with completion of course works of five nutrition undergraduate courses in Rio Grande do Norte state in the years 2013/2013. From the reading of the works, the following variables were collected: nature of the institution, institution administrative category, location, work title, number of authors, work format, titration of the teacher advisor, study type, area of interest, scenery of accomplishment, submission to the ethics committee, suitability of descriptors and, as pertaining to the field of public health, the subfield of public health and the theme. The pedagogical projects of the courses were read and were identified opportunities to develop research in the graduation. For detection of significant categories we applied the Pearson chisquare test. We analyzed 195 works, coming mostly belonging to universities courses (79.0%) and private institutions (56.4%). A higher frequency of articles (68.2%), developed by one student (65.6%), guided by master teachers (57.9%), with cross-sectional study design (49.2%), conducted in laboratory (25%) and without submission to the ethics committee in research (49.2%) was find. The median adequacy of descriptors was 50%. As for the interest of the study, there was a higher frequency of work in the field of public health (p <0.001), within this subfield highlighting the nutritional epidemiology (63.0%) (p <0.001) and the subject nutrition assessment (57, 4%) (p <0.001). In cut on three major areas of dietician performance, was significant performing work in the field of public health in public institutions (p <0.05). The presence of complementary activities was unanimous in the pedagogical projects of the courses. The results of the study showed some methodological weaknesses in the research approaches, as well as a hegemonic positivist training. Despite the emphasis on public health, it was noticed little approximation of policies and nutrition programs in the context of the mandatory recearch of Rio Grande do Norte state nutrition courses.

Caminhos para a avaliação da formação em odontologia: desenvolvimento, validação e aplicação de critérios

The need for universal access to health and the failure of the pedagogical model centered on the transmission of knowledge has led to changes in the training of health professionals. The objective of this study was to provide a new alternative for evaluating dental students through the development, validation and application of evaluation criteria based on the National Curriculum Guidelines (DCN in Brazil). Therefore, the study was conducted in three phases: development and validation of evaluation criteria of Dentistry courses based on the DCN; a pilot study to verify the applicability of the validated criteria and evaluation of the dentistry courses in the Northeast. In the first stage, a logical model was formulated, allowing for the construction of a criteria matrix, validated by a modified Delphi consensus technique. The validated matrix has the following dimensions: Profile of graduates, health care guidance, teaching and service integration, and pedagogical approach. The pilot study was conducted in five dental courses through a documentary study of the pedagogical project course (PPC), and application of validated questionnaires and interviews with course coordinators. The results of the pilot study indicate the possibility of being verified by means of validated criteria and using different methodological proposals, advances and curricular limitations facing the proposed reorientation of training recommended by DCN. The evaluation of Northeast Dentistry courses was carried out by applying a questionnaire validating a matrix of 30 course coordinators, including public and private institutions. The data were submitted to descriptive analysis, and also tested the difference between means and the correlation between the assessment of the coordinators in the dimensions and sub-dimensions with each other, among the general evaluation of courses and between the following variables: administrative category, time since last curriculum updating, participation in reorienting the training of health professionals programs, ENADE and CPC (Preliminary Concepts of the Course) scores in the year 2013. Positive correlation (p <0.01) was found between the means obtained by the perception of the coordinators in most dimensions, and also between them and the overall performance of the course. There were no significant differences between the coordinators’ perception about course performance and the administrative category (public / private). This difference is slightly higher when the average performance is compared with respect to time due to the last curriculum update, getting better performance in courses with the latest updated curriculum, even with there not 11 being this significant difference between dimensions. Better averages of performance were obtained in courses that do not participate in reorientation programs of professional training, with a significant difference (p<0.05) for the overall score and for all dimensions except the dimensions of teaching-service Integration (p = 0.064). There was no significant correlation between the assessment of coordinators in all dimensions, in the overall assessment or ENADE and CPC scores in 2013. The final instrument proposed in this study is a different alternative assessment for health training of both dentists and other professionals, considering that the DCN providing for the training and graduation of professionals is focused on the health needs of the population, integrated with the SUS (the National Brazilian Health System) and based on student-centered learning.

Continuidade do desempenho do cargo de diretor de turma e o impacto no sucesso educativo dos alunos: um estudo no 2º Ciclo de uma escola pública da Ilha da Madeira

A escola portuguesa do século XXI tem sido alvo de reformas sucessivas procedentes de imposições económicas, políticas e sociais, sem o devido acompanhamento de inovação bottom up. A mudança decorrente tem-se processado sobretudo formalmente (inovação top down), menosprezando, ainda em larga escala, as pessoas e o seu capital (intelectual, emocional, social e psicológico), num momento em que a globalização impulsiona a transição do paradigma funcional para o paradigma das competências. Sendo os indivíduos parte integrante das soluções e êxitos organizacionais, bem como cada vez mais manifesta a preocupação dos líderes com a eficácia, eficiência e qualidade do serviço prestado ao nível das escolas de interesse público, direcionamos a análise para a gestão dos recursos humanos, mais particularmente ao nível da dualidade: instabilidade na carreira docente/estabilidade do diretor de turma. O interesse supremo da temática reside nas potencialidades deste cargo de gestão intermédia na concretização da missão da escola, a partir do papel que o seu detentor assume na teia de relações em que se insere por imposição das suas funções, e que pode fomentar quando dotado de determinadas características. Este estudo de caso, de natureza essencialmente quantitativa, traduz a análise crítica acerca do impacto da continuidade do desempenho do cargo ao longo do 2.º ciclo do ensino básico no sucesso educativo dos alunos, partindo da análise dos resultados de medidas adotadas no ano escolar 2010/2011. Para o efeito recorreu-se à análise do aproveitamento, da atuação do conselho de turma e da comunicação escola-família em seis turmas do sexto ano de escolaridade, três com o mesmo diretor de turma, de uma escola pública do concelho de Câmara de Lobos. Concluímos que a manutenção do diretor de turma nas turmas visadas teve repercussões na vertente relacional, principalmente, não tendo sido confirmada a conexão entre a continuidade do profissional que assume o cargo ao longo do ciclo e os resultados académicos dos discentes, pese embora a opinião contrária de 87,9% dos docentes inquiridos, e de a maioria quer dos estudantes, quer dos seus encarregados de educação, ser favorável à sua prossecução.

A Importância do Clima Organizacional no Desempenho das Equipes de Trabalho: um estudo de caso no Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia da Paraíba

Envelhecer… Embelecer… Envilecer: comprometimento ou desvinculação com a vida? Atividade e sociabilidade dos idosos da Alta de Coimbra

Este estudo surgiu com o intuito de compreender se os mais velhos continuam, após a transição para a reforma, a participar na esfera da economia, formal e informal, e da sociabilidade, analisando com mais pormenor no que se refere a esta última faceta o sentimento de solidão. Partindo dos diferentes enquadramentos teóricos sobre o contributo socioeconómico dos idosos o objetivo foi compreender, no campo empírico, a posição dos sujeitos relativamente à transição para a reforma e de que forma os mesmos se percecionavam em áreas ligadas à produtividade e sociabilidade. A amostra foi intencional (N=30) e abrangeu sujeitos com idade igual ou superior a sessenta e cinco anos, com pelo menos um ano de reforma e residentes na Alta de Coimbra. A entrevista semiestruturada e a observação direta foram os instrumentos selecionados para aprofundar as vivências dos participantes. No que respeita ao tratamento dos dados recorremos à técnica da análise de conteúdo, com base em Bardin, que nos permitiu captar a singularidade de cada sujeito, sem descurar a totalidade das observações. No final concluiu-se que os sujeitos entrevistados vivenciam a transição para a reforma de maneiras distintas, reforçando assim a heterogeneidade deste grupo, e que são dotados de um capital social e económico que urge potencializar, quer no seio da sociedade civil, quer de forma específica no âmbito da Gestão de Recursos Humanos. / This study aims to understand if, after they retire, the elderly continue to get involved in areas like economy, formal and informal, and sociability, analyzing in detail the feeling of loneliness. Bearing in mind the different theories about the elderly’s social and economic contribution, the goal was to empirically understand the attitude of these individuals towards their transition to retirement, and to see how they perceive themselves and their role in productivity and sociability. The sample was intentional (N=30) and has included people aged sixty five and over sixty five, who have been retired for at least one year, and living in Alta de Coimbra. The semisstructured interview and direct observation were used to know the participants’ way of live. In what comes to data processing, we followed the content analysis technique, based on Bardin, which allows us to capture the singularity of each individual, without forgetting the whole set of observations. In the end we have concluded that the interviewed individuals live the transition into retirement in different ways, thus reinforcing the heterogeneity of this group and their social and economic capital, which needs to be put to use, both in civil society and more specifically in the sphere of the human management resources.

Satisfação no Trabalho: o caso do Município de Condeixa-a-Nova

No âmbito da gestão de Recursos Humanos a análise da satisfação no trabalho considera-se de grande relevância, uma vez que esta variável influencia o desempenho dos trabalhadores, a sua produtividade e, consequentemente o sucesso organizacional. Neste contexto, esta dissertação teve como objectivos analisar o nível de satisfação no trabalho dos funcionários das diferentes categorias profissionais da Câmara Municipal de Condeixa-a-Nova (CMC); verificar se as varáveis socioprofissionais, nomeadamente, a idade, o sexo, o tempo de serviço, a categoria profissional, as habilitações académicas e o tipo de vínculo que têm com a autarquia estão relacionadas com a satisfação no trabalho e analisar até que ponto as diferentes dimensões da satisfação influenciam o trabalho dos funcionários da CMC. A abordagem de investigação foi quantitativa, de âmbito estatístico descritivo e análise inferencial, desenvolvida a partir da aplicação de um questionário sobre a satisfação no trabalho. A amostra é composta por 91 funcionários da CMC, o que representa 41,94% da população total. Da análise dos dados conclui-se que existem diferenças ao nível da satisfação total no trabalho entre as diferentes categorias profissionais, sendo a categoria de encarregado operacional a que apresenta uma média de satisfação total no trabalho mais elevada e as categorias de assistente operacional, técnico superior e assistente técnico as que apresentam valores médios de satisfação no trabalho mais baixos. Por outro lado, e de uma forma geral, os funcionários manifestam uma grande satisfação ao nível da dimensão liderança e uma maior insatisfação ao nível da dimensão dos factores pessoais. / Inside of the human resources management, the study of job satisfaction is considered of great importance since this variable influences the performance of employees, their productivity and consequently the organizational success. In this context, this dissertation aimed to analyze the job satisfaction level from the various professional categories of the city council of Condeixa-a-Nova (CMC), verify the relationship between socio-professional variables (age, sex, length of service, professional category, academic qualifications) and job satisfaction and analyze to what extent the different dimensions of job satisfaction influence the work of employees from CMC. The research approach was quantitative, descriptive and statistical, with a inferential analysis, developed from the application of a questionnaire about job satisfaction. The sample consists of 91 workers of CMC, which represents 41,94 % of the total population. From the data analysis, we concluded that there are differences at the level of total job satisfaction between the different professional categories. The professional category of “encarregado operacional” has a highest average of job total satisfaction and the professional categories of “assistente operacional”, “técnico superior” and “assistente técnico” have the lowest average. On the other hand, and in general, employees express a great satisfaction at the level of leadership and a lower satisfaction of the personal factors dimension.

Motivação no trabalho voluntário: expectativas e motivos na Pastoral da Criança

The present study has proposed a structural model to identify the reasons why individuals become voluntary, keep and exit this type of work. The empirical space was the Pastoral da Criança - social action agency of the National Conference of Bishops of Brazil (CNBB) - community-based institution that has its work based on solidarity and the sharing of knowledge. The theoretical framework has the context in which are volunteering studies in Brazilian and world level. Then discuss the various concepts of volunteering and presented the theoretical models of volunteer motivation. Studies of Mostyn (1983) and studies conducted by the BEPEGE-Base for Studies and Research in Management Policies and Strategies - in their line of research GERQUAL - Human Resource Management and Organizational Quality - of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte as Carvalho e Souza(2006), Souza, Medeiros e Fernandes (2006), Souza et al (2009, 2010), Cavalcante et al (2011a, 2011b, 2011c, 2011d) were the main theoretical references for the construction of the model that was tested. Data collection was done through a survey with 71 indicators, in 2 visits to cities from the Diocese of Pesqueira, Pernambuco. The first data collection occurred in the period between May 30 and June 3, 2011, in Buique/PE and the second collection happened in Pesqueira/PE, in St. Joseph Seminary, in the period between July 6-8, 2011. 720 questionnaires were collected. The sample was divided into two parts. Exploratory Factor Analysis was applied in first part and Confirmatory Factor Analysis - structural equation modeling - in the second half. The examination of the results achieved by the expectations, reasons for entry, reasons for staying and exit reasons showed that all hypotheses were accepted. So the motivation of voluntary Pastoral da Criança can be explained by a set of interactions between these five constructs: Altruistic, Affectionate, Amiable, Adjusted and Astute

Como a humildade dos líderes prediz a criatividade da equipa: um estudo empírico

Os estudos empíricos sobre a humildade na área dos estudos organizacionais são ainda escassos, com também os estudos sobre a humildade na liderança. Este trabalho contribui para enriquecer a literatura sobre o tema, através do estudo de como a humildade dos líderes prevê a criatividade da equipa através do efeito mediador da segurança psicológica e capital psicológico. A amostra é constituída por 73 equipas / líderes, de 40 organizações que operam em vários setores. Os líderes (n = 73) descreveram a sua própria humildade, o seu narcisismo (como variável de controlo) e a criatividade da equipa. Os membros da equipa (n = 341) descreveram a humildade do líder, a segurança psicológica e o capital psicológico da equipa. Foi adotada uma análise ao nível da equipa e os resultados individuais agregados ao nível da equipa. Os resultados sugerem que (a) a humildade do líder descrita pelos membros da equipa prevê a criatividade da equipa e (b) essa relação é mediada pela segurança psicológica e capital psicológico. Líderes mais humildes levam as suas equipas a se sentirem psicologicamente mais seguras, o que induz ao desenvolvimento de um maior capital psicologico da equipa e, desta forma, tornarem-se mais criativas.
