Resumo: | The inherent complexity of environmental performance measurement makes it difficult to be gauged, sending it forth to methodologies supported on assessments of the various factors that could influence the overall performance. In association with the environmental performance lies the need to create methods that allows the assessment over the time in order to facilitate comparisons amongst different organizations or operations of a same company. Measurement of environmental performance comes from several sources thus a dominant approach widely recognized and accepted by the academic community and organizations can not be singled out. The purpose of this review is to test a method for assessing environmental performance in a manufacturer organization, performing a case study in the paper industry. The results can be compared with other operations and can be used, cumulatively, in supply chains. The specific objectives are (i) to model the environmental performance of the transaction, (ii) to use the model to measure performance, and (iii) to interpret the results and come to a conclusion. It begins with a review of the environmental performance measurement and then proceeds to the description of the research methodology and the results of its application. The method consists of five constructs, assessed by managers and processes experts according to their potential of environmental performance's improvement: solid waste, wastewater, gas emissions, deployment of natural resources, and legal compliance. The constructs are perceived by qualitative indicators categorically evaluated. The final result is an index of 76.69%, which represents the environmental performance of the operation. |

A inerente complexidade do tema desempenho ambiental torna difícil sua mensuração, remetendo a metodologias apoiadas na avaliação dos diferentes fatores capazes de influenciar o desempenho global. Associado ao desempenho ambiental está a necessidade de criar metodologias que permitam sua avaliação ao longo do tempo e facilitem a comparação entre operações de diferentes organizações ou de um mesmo grupo empresarial. A medição de desempenho ambiental surge em diversas fontes, no entanto, não se identificou uma metodologia dominante, que seja amplamente reconhecida e aceita pela comunidade acadêmica e pelas organizações. O objetivo geral deste artigo é testar um método de avaliação de desempenho ambiental em uma operação de manufatura, realizando um estudo de caso na indústria papeleira. Os resultados podem ser comparados com outras operações e serem usados, cumulativamente, em cadeias produtivas. Os objetivos específicos são: (i) modelar o desempenho ambiental da operação; (ii) usar o modelo para mensurar o desempenho; e (iii); interpretar os resultados e concluir. Inicialmente é feita uma revisão sobre temas relacionados à medição de desempenho ambiental, passando então a descrever a metodologia de pesquisa e os resultados da aplicação. O método compreende cinco construtos, avaliados por gestores e especialistas no processo segundo seu potencial de melhoria no desempenho ambiental: resíduos sólidos; efluentes líquidos; emissões atmosféricas; uso de recursos naturais e energéticos; e atendimento à legislação. Os construtos são apreendidos por indicadores qualitativos avaliados categoricamente. O resultado final é um índice de 76,69%, que representa o desempenho ambiental da operação.Associação Brasileira de Engenharia de Produção2011-09-06info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfaudio/mpeghttps://www.producaoonline.org.br/rpo/article/view/72310.14488/1676-1901.v11i4.723Revista Produção Online; Vol. 11 No. 4 (2011); 1059-1085Revista Produção Online; v. 11 n. 4 (2011); 1059-10851676-1901reponame:Revista Produção Onlineinstname:Associação Brasileira de Engenharia de Produção (ABEPRO)instacron:ABEPROporhttps://www.producaoonline.org.br/rpo/article/view/723/845https://www.producaoonline.org.br/rpo/article/view/723/857Copyright (c) 2014 Revista Produção Onlineinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAntonov, PaulaSellitto, Miguel Afonso2015-11-11T17:25:53Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/723Revistahttp://producaoonline.org.br/rpoPUBhttps://www.producaoonline.org.br/rpo/oai||producaoonline@gmail.com1676-19011676-1901opendoar:2015-11-11T17:25:53Revista Produção Online - Associação Brasileira de Engenharia de Produção (ABEPRO)false |
