Indicadores energéticos: instrumentos de apoio ao desenvolvimento sustentável

Energy indicators are tools to support decision-making on energy. The growing debate on sustainable development, contributed to the energy indicators began to incorporate, besides the traditional economic, social and environmental information. Therefore, taking sustainable development into account, it is important to know contributions and limitations of these tools. The overall goal of this study is to analyze the contributions and limitations of the energy indicators as assets to support sustainable development.This study can be classified as descriptive because it relies on bibliographical and documental material. As a result of documental analysis, 55 energy indicators for sustainable development (EISD) were selected. The selection took place by identification of those indicators through the institutions International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Helio International and World Energy Council (WEC), among 19 institutions involved in research on energy identified in the survey. The study stresses that most of the selected indicators focuses on the economic dimension, 19 EISDs (34.54%), followed by 10 EISDs (18.18%) focused on the environmental dimension, 9 EISDs (16.36%) focused on the social issues, 7 EISDs (12.45%) are classified as resilience, 4 EISDs (7.27%) is about governance, 3 EISDs (5.45%) focused on vulnerability and 3 EISDs (5.45%) is about policy. Despite the inclusion of indicators associated with other dimensions than economy, information provided by those indicators emerges as their own limitation. Because, recently, indicators’ information were used to promote sustainable development as well as the opposite. Additionally, the study identified EISDs whose components were not specified. They may enable generation of information far from the real scenario, if components dissociated EISD would be taking into consideration or even the non-consideration of relevant components. Despite limitations, EISDs assisting decision-makers contributes to the pursuit of sustainable development. But they may be improved through information about environmental issues, such as emission of atmospheric pollutants, soil and water, resulting from energy sources, helps identifying which sources are more or less harmful for sustainable development. However, difficulty in collecting data, identifying the components for calculation of each indicator and even interpretation of this, as analyzed, may not only fail to contribute to sustainable development, as can delay taking corrective or preventive decisions.

Governança de TI nas universidades federais brasileiras: uma abordagem integrada

This research has as an objective to study the IT Governance in the Brazilian Federal Universities, discusses the relationships between the IT Governance (ITG) mechanisms and the noticed IT management development in those public institutions. The subject Information Technology Governance, is not only vast, but constitutes implications in most different operational and knowledge areas, being relevant to the Public Administration, as a part of Corporative Governance and the public related, evolves high investments, such as financial, structure and material and human resources. The universities are entities from Indirect Administration and essential actors in the knowledge developing and creating and on its managers.

Proposta de um modelo de gestão de custos para pequenas propriedades rurais familiares com foco na tomada de decisão

This work was general-purpose, develop a proposal of a theoretical model of decisionmaking with a focus on management of small family farms costs, which enables support for decision making. And the following objectives: i) develop a structured methodology, which allows to form a literary basis to provide scientific support for the implementation of research; ii) develop based on the literature the dimensions and variables of the necessary models to propose an application and iii tooling) to implement the proposed model within the dimensions and variables, and validate every stage background and perform the necessary conclusions to verify the effectiveness of applied model. In terms of methodology, we used a structured methodology, which allowed forming a bibliographic portfolio of 29 articles, and through the research constructs developed, based on an existing model, an activity segmentation model for aid farmer of small family farms in the decision-making process with emphasis on cost management. The model was applied in six family farms in the South West region of Parana and Santa Catarina West. With regard to the search results, it was identified that the model can be applied to the specific context for which it was created. It was also possible to identify that the proposed model was valid and relevant to aid in the management of family farms by identifying, through the targeting of productive activities, investment priorities guided by the balance between managing costs and return activities. Moreover, possible to target the activities of six surveyed properties, demonstrating that the property 02, has the shape of more complex segmentation should be divided into three groups of activities, which can be conducted in parallel without any restrictions between activities. Other properties have the segmentation of the simplest activities, allowing viewing in this way that there are activities of groups that require prioritizing investments. Specifically the property 01 and 04 have the highest priority investment target groups, the most prominent activities of groups representing respectively 49.32% and 47.40%, which are represented by grain production activities on the property 01 and grain production, beef cattle and eggs on the property 04.

Qualidade de vida no trabalho: o caso de enfermeiros dos Hospitais Públicos Walfredo Gurgel e Santa Catarina

The theoretical foundation of this study addresses the construct Quality of Worklife involving pro-active reading organizations in face to social developments of the working class, which is a challenge to the people s management. In this sense, as a contribution to the studies of quality of worklife (QOWL), this study addresses the quality of lifework of nurses at Walfredo Gurgel and Santa Catarina public hospitals. The goal is to make a diagnosis about the quality of lifework of these employees taking as a basis dimensions and performance indicators shown in the model by Fernandes (1996). The research is characterized by field, in a descriptive way. This survey comprised 75 nurses, with 49 by Walfredo Gurgel hospital and 26 by Santa Catarina one. The data collection was carried out through structured questionnaire. The questions were processed in the software Statistic 6.0, with factor analysis and multiple regressions, after the systematization of data. As a result, the most nurses in hospitals are dissatisfied with the quality of lifework, with the highest incidence in Santa Catarina hospital. The variable occupational health assessment was more negative in the hospital Santa Catarina one, whereas in Walfredo Gurgel, was family assistance. The variable guarantee of employment was more positive assessment in two hospitals without, though, implying in high importance on QOWL of nurses. The factor structure and decision showed greater sensitivity to explain the QOWL of nurses, joining 17 variables from 40 of the model. The factor working conditions, joining 6 variables, showed the second highest sensitivity. The compensation factor, gathering 5 variables, showed the third highest sensitivity while image and health factors showed minor importance

O trabalho dos executivos: A mudança que não ocorreu

A preocupação com o trabalho dos executivos tem chamado cada vez menos a atenção dos pesquisadores. Tal fato nos parece um contra-senso quando relembramos que eles desempenham papel fundamental nas organizações atuais e que o discurso que é difundido sobre mudanças organizacionais parece alterar substancialmente o seu trabalho. O objetivo deste artigo foi comparar o trabalho dos executivos na atualidade brasileira com estudos sobre o tema. Percebemos em nossas análises, que o trabalho dos executivos de nossa amostra se assemelha muito com os descritos pela literatura consagrada. Parece que nada mudou em relação aos estudos de Fayol (1976 [1916]), Barnard (1938); Carlson (1951) e Mintzberg (1973). Eles continuam organizando, controlando e promovendo a cooperação nas organizações. Suas atividades são fragmentadas, intensas, superficiais. Além disso, notamos que há vários caminhos para desenvolvimento de pesquisas, principalmente investigar a diferença entre o trabalho desempenhado pelos executivos em empresas brasileiras e estrangeiras no país, questões relativas ao impacto de sua profissão na vida das suas famílias, aspectos relativos a controle e ideologia e influência do ensino de administração nas tarefas que desempenham no dia a dia.

Regimes de Tributação Existentes no Brasil para Residentes e Não Residentes

Nos últimos anos, devido à crise enfrentada por Portugal, muitos são os portugueses a pro-curarem oportunidades de negócios no Brasil. Deste modo, esta dissertação debruça-se sobre a legislação tributária brasileira, com o objetivo de apresentar como serão tributados os investidores que decidam investir no Brasil, através de empresas residentes no território brasileiro ou como não residentes. E não poderíamos falar em investimento estrangeiro no Brasil, sem falar dos tratados inter-nacionais, utilizados para evitar a dupla tributação, e como é realizada a articulação deste tipo de normas com o direito interno brasileiro. Para as empresas residentes no Brasil, ou as que lhe são equiparadas pela legislação, exis-tem quatro regimes para a apuração do imposto de renda, a saber: Lucro Real, Lucro Pre-sumido, Lucro Arbitrado e o SIMPLES Nacional. E para os não residentes, que obtenham rendimentos cuja fonte de produção e fonte pagadora estejam localizadas no Brasil, existe o regime do Imposto de Renda Retido na Fonte. Quanto aos tratados internacionais, estes têm caráter supra legal e infra constitucional no ordenamento brasileiro. Contudo, um dos problemas no Brasil em relação às CDT é a interpretação das normas ser extremamente restritiva.
