O presente estudo tem como principal objectivo caracterizar as práticas de Gestão de Recursos Humanos mais desenvolvidas em pequenas e médias empresas (PME’s) portuguesas. Embora parte integrante de uma investigação mais ampla, a qual resultou numa dissertação de mestrado que pretendeu estudar as práticas de Gestão de Recursos Humanos (GRH) nas empresas de média dimensão do distrito de Aveiro, este estudo pretende apresentar uma das suas principais dimensões de análise. De referir que a investigação inicial abrangia o conceito de média empresa (de 50 a 500 trabalhadores). No entanto, e para conferir originalidade ao estudo que agora se apresenta publicamente, a realidade empírica em estudo foi circunscrita às denominadas PME’s (50 a 249 trabalhadores). Para melhor contextualizar a realidade objecto de estudo, tomou-se como ponto de partida a abordagem teórica sobre as diferentes fases evolutivas do conceito e conteúdo da GRH e, consequentemente, a sua caracterização no nosso país. Adicionalmente é analisado o papel que o departamento de recursos humanos assume no desenvolvimento da GRH no interior das PME’s através da disseminação que faz das suas diferentes práticas, previamente identificadas a partir da revisão de literatura analisada. A partir da literatura revista foi identificado um conjunto de 21 práticas de GRH como as mais comummente desenvolvidas em contexto organizacional. Dado ser objectivo principal perceber se a GRH das PME’s portuguesas acompanha a tendência evolutiva desta disciplina de gestão a nível internacional, fez-se a diferenciação entre aquelas que são consideradas práticas tradicionais e práticas estratégicas de GRH. Delimitado ao distrito de Aveiro, de um universo constituído por 613 empresas, foi aplicado um inquérito por questionário, via postal, tendo sido recolhidos 111 questionários válidos. A análise dos resultados permite concluir que não obstante predominarem em Portugal as PME’s, estas apresentam pouca intensidade no desenvolvimento de práticas de GRH, ao mesmo tempo que se apresentam como limitadoras do grau de intervenção do departamento de RH, no desenvolvimento dessas práticas. Há, portanto, motivos para propor alguns desafios de mudança à GRH vigente neste grupo de empresas, ainda muito dependente dos processos burocrático-administrativos na gestão do recurso mais dinâmico das organizações: as pessoas. É ainda longo o caminho a percorrer para que se possa falar numa efectiva gestão estratégica de recursos humanos nas PME’s portuguesas. Contudo, os primeiros passos estão dados. Este estudo permitiu não só uma primeira aproximação a um conjunto de PME’s portuguesas bem como a obtenção de maior conhecimento da função recursos humanos das PME’s estudadas. As principais conclusões extraídas deste estudo pretendem ser um importante input que auxilie as empresas portuguesas com esta tipologia a melhorarem a sua eficiência no domínio da GRH.

Este estudo tem como objetivos: (1) conhecer as práticas desenvolvidas numa organização do Ensino Superior Público Português; (2) conhecer a tipologia das práticas de GRH de cariz tradicional e de cariz estratégico; (3) perceber em que medida as práticas de GRH estão relacionadas com a área de qualificação dos responsáveis do departamento de RH; (4) averiguar o grau de satisfação que os trabalhadores sentem com as Práticas de Gestão de Recursos Humanos desenvolvidas e a sua relação com a área de qualificação dos responsáveis do departamento de RH. Foi utilizada uma metodologia mista, que possibilita ampliar a obtenção de resultados em abordagens investigativas, proporcionando ganhos relevantes para a pesquisa. É realizado um primeiro estudo exploratório, que utiliza uma metodologia mista quantitativa e qualitativa, com recurso a uma entrevista semiestruturada e inquérito realizados aos responsáveis de RH, e que tem como objetivos identificar e caracterizar as Práticas de GRH vigentes na Organização e, consequentemente, averiguar se se aproximam das designadas na literatura, assim como averiguar o grau de intervenção do DRH no desenvolvimento das PGRH e caraterizar o perfil do responsável de RH na Organização, averiguando se a área de formação de RH influencia as Práticas de GRH desenvolvidas. No segundo estudo, recorremos a uma metodologia quantitativa com recurso ao inquérito por questionário, aplicado aos trabalhadores que exercem funções a tempo integral, para averiguar o grau de satisfação dos trabalhadores em relação às Práticas de Gestão de Recursos Humanos. Na compilação dos dois estudos foi nosso objetivo obter respostas às questões que orientaram a nossa investigação. Na parte final da dissertação são discutidos os principais resultados obtidos e apresentadas as conclusões do estudo aqui levado a cabo. Os resultados sugerem que: 1) as PGRH existentes são essencialmente de cariz tradicional, em especial a gestão administrativa; 2) as PGRH predominantes são: o Planeamento de Recursos Humanos, a Análise e Descrição de Funções, o Recrutamento e Seleção, a Formação e Desenvolvimento, a Gestão Administrativa, a Comunicação e a Partilha de Informação, Ética e Deontologia e o Estatuto Disciplinar; 3) existe pouco recurso ao outsourcing para as PGRH; 4) o grau de intervenção DRH baseia-se em atividades de cariz mais administrativo; 5) as práticas tradicionais de RH são aquelas que requerem mais tempo ao DRH; 6) não existe relação entre o tipo de PGRH e a área de qualificação do responsável do DRH; 7) as PGRH são realizadas seguindo essencialmente as normas legais e regras rígidas da GRH na AP; 8) algumas PGRH não são entendidas em contexto da AP, como importantes pelos gestores, embora já sejam desenvolvidos alguns procedimentos dessas práticas; 9) a PGRH da formação e desenvolvimento não é corretamente desenvolvida e não dá cumprimento ao estipulado na lei; 10) a gestão de carreiras e o sistema de compensação e recompensas são entendidas como inexistentes, porque não existem promoções e progressões desde 2005; 11) a avaliação do desempenho é um sistema burocrático e ritualista com fins de promoção e compensação, sem efeitos práticos no momento atual, e que causa insatisfação e o sentimento de injustiça; 12) existem problemas de comunicação quanto a partilha e uniformização de procedimentos entre UO; 13) a satisfação dos trabalhadores é maior com as PGRH de tipo tradicional, nomeadamente na gestão administrativa, recrutamento e seleção, análise e descrição de funções, acolhimento, integração e socialização 14) a satisfação é menor na gestão de carreiras, no sistema de compensação e recompensas e na avaliação do desempenho; 15) quanto a relação entre o grau de satisfação e as características sócio demográficas e profissionais dos inquiridos, os casos com significância mostram que os trabalhadores com 10 ou mais anos de antiguidade tendem a sentir mais satisfação com as práticas em GRH; 16) existe mais satisfação dos trabalhadores das UO onde o responsável de DRH possui formação na área de RH.

A definição de teores mínimos de incorporação de biocombustíveis, constitui objeto de discussão entre grupos pro-desenvolvimento e ambientalistas. Esses últimos argumentam que as consequências da utilização desta fonte energética ainda são desconhecidas. Além disso, alegam que a produção de biocombustíveis é, em parte, responsável pelo aumento no preço dos alimentos, encoraja a conversão de florestas em monoculturas e conduz à exploração de trabalhadores em países em desenvolvimento (PEDs). Para responder à dependência energética dos combustíveis de origem fóssil, e ajudar a reduzir as emissões de gases com efeito de estufa, sobretudo no sector dos transportes, o biodiesel produzido a partir de óleos alimentares usados têm sido apontado como uma “solução verde” capaz de minimizar o problema das alterações climáticas e valorizar um resíduo, e simultaneamente conferir ao setor energético um pouco mais de independência. De forma a desmistificar e clarificar um pouco estas premissas, a presente dissertação pretende fazer um estudo de avaliação do impacto da utilização do biodiesel, nomeadamente no que diz respeito às emissões gasosas. Posteriormente realizou-se, tomando como referência uma pequena frota industrial existente, uma análise comparativa dos consumos e emissões dos principais poluentes decorrentes da utilização do biodiesel em diferentes percentagens de incorporação no gasóleo, comparativamente ao gasóleo puro. O trabalho culmina com uma abordagem técnica sobre o comportamento de um veículo equipado com um motor de ignição por compressão, utilizando como biocombustível o biodiesel.

Chromoblastomycosis is a chronic human melanized fungi infection of the subcutaneous tissue caused by traumatic inoculation of a specific group of dematiaceous fungi through the skin, often found in barefooted agricultural workers, in tropical and subtropical climate countries. We report the case of a male patient presenting a slow-growing pruriginous lesion on the limbs for 20 years, mistreated over that time, which was diagnosed and successfully treated as chromoblastomycosis. Besides the prevalence of this disease, treatment is still a clinical challenge.

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.

In this thesis, we will treat the discrimination based on age, more specifically of older workers. In recent years, there was an increasing interest on the part of doctrine and jurisprudence on this subject. In fact, in a world in which you live a real economic crisis, older workers tend to have difficulties finding jobs or are targets of the discrimination based on age, at the time of hiring or during the contract. Thus, we will focus on discrimination. We will examine, first, the difference between direct and indirect discrimination, taking into account the importance of the burden of proof, then we will study the figures of positive action measures. Then, treat the legislative framework of the discrimination based on age, that is, in relation to the Labor Code and the Directive 2000/78/EC of November 27, 2000. Eventually, we will determine the cases in which they may accept the discrimination based on age. In fact, these differences in treatment based on age are justified, but must be aimed at a legitimate objective with appropriate and necessary means.

In a male dominant political world, the cases of female leadership are still a novelty. Looking at the episodes where a woman was head of state or government, the impact on attitudes and perceptions toward gender equality is evaluated. By instrumenting the presence of a female in government with the proportion of female seats in parliament, the results seem to suggest that individuals, when exposed to a woman as an executive political leader, report a higher tendency to agree with statements of gender discrimination.

The emergence of new technologies has introduced significant changes in the citizens life’s. There is a constant evolution of technological means and profound impact of their use in the habits of life of the human being. These new technological media are important tools in labor relations. The working and businesses worlds are increasingly turning to these new technologies, so that the use of video surveillance in the workplace is nowadays common. New technologies in general and the use of video surveillance in workplace in particular are providing ways to allow control of the work performance that are desired by most employers. However, the collection of images in the workplace often collides with the fundamental rights and freedoms of workers, in particular, with the right to privacy. The subject concerns the question of investigating is whether the images collected in workplace can be used as evidence in disciplinary proceedings. In fact, this issue is controversial. Doctrine and jurisprudence defend, at least, two responses for the same question. Those who understand that the evidence may be admitted for not violate any right of the worker, and others who argue that the evidence should not be admitted in disciplinary office. In the Portuguese legal system, there is, even, a new intermediate theory that begins to be defended, that only on certain occasions the evidence may be admitted. The solution to this problem involves the study of employment law and data video surveillance processing. Analysis of workers fundamental rights is fundamental to come to a grounded conclusion.
