Este estudo aborda o trabalho da mulher na Polícia Civil do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, sob a ótica dos critérios do Trabalho Decente da Organização Internacional do Trabalho. A pesquisa classificase no campo da sustentabilidade, na vertente social, relacionada à responsabilidade social corporativa, em busca da necessária gestão pública sustentável. O objetivo foi analisar o ambiente para as mulheres, com base nos critérios do trabalho decente. A coleta de dados foi realizada a partir de diversas fontes de evidência, fazendo-se uso de dados primários e secundários. O estudo tem natureza qualitativa, a partir de um roteiro de observação e um instrumento flexível composto por perguntas abertas. A interpretação foi realizada utilizando-se de procedimento de análise de conteúdo, com foco nas oportunidades que a mulher passou a encontrar a partir da década de 1970 e, atualmente, ocupa lugar destacado em paridade com os homens, não obstante, com algumas evidências de limitação de oportunidades. A percepção geral é de desconformidade com os indicadores da OIT, ressalvando-se os critérios ligados à seguridade e diálogo social, assim como estabilidade e rendimento, que foram considerados total ou parcialmente atendidos. Nos demais pontos não há adequação do trabalho policial aos vetores da OIT, especialmente segurança, igualdade, oportunidades, conciliação e jornada de trabalho. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Environmental practices in the management of organizations have become an important factor so that enterprises may improve their presentation and meet the requirements of a globalized market. The management of wastes is a great concern and one of the causes of several problems worldwide. Current analysis deals with the management practices of solid residues and the initiatives undertaken on farms. A quantitative research, coupled to sampling by convenience and accessibility, was performed, comprising a 19-point questionnaire and applied to 59 farmers, managers and leaseholders with agricultural and cattle-raising activities. Data were analyzed by frequency technique with SPSS. Main results revealed that most agents are more than 40 years old; with high-schooling; more than 70% are owners of large extensions of land for the production of grain; total profit of more than 400,000 Brazilian reals. Moreover, the discourse that owners are aware of the residue problems is a myth since it is not applied in the control activities and practices. Supplying firms enhance the reverse discourse of the labels and CONAMA. FEPAM and municipal organizations fail to supervise the farms' activities. The great difficulties comprise the disposal of residues in a proper place, lack of residue disposals, dearth of information. In fact, more than 60% of the farms do not undertake the collection of solid wastes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper are analyzed the environmental management strategies in industrial companies located in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, a city in the central region of the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. This is a descriptive and exploratory study, conducted in a population of 44 industries such as: food, wine, wood, furniture, mining, sanitation, construction, energy, graphic and metallurgical industries. The survey was performed in August 2012, and covered 71% of all registered companies, all of them classified as micro enterprises, in accordance with the criteria adopted by the IBGE. It was found that the management tools and ways used by enterprises for strategic decision making are informal or nonexistent, and that the environmental management procedures are precariously performed, and that there is a significant number of companies in which environmental protection practices are not performed. This behavior may be largely attributed to inadequate monitoring and lack of supervision of environmental legislation by government authorities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
