Resumo: Environmental management is posing a great challenge to firms and also a permanent test to CEO's in face of the demands derived from a more rigid state legislation and a higher pressure from changing social values. The industrial park of the State of Ceará is presenting a significant growth, leading to a greater concern over environmental impacts generated by these industries. So, the general objective of this research is to study the largest industrial exporters' of Ceará, considering their conditionings and motivations for investment in actions of environmental management. The methodology uses quantitative methods that were analyzed with the usage of Sphinx software. Data were collected with interviews to the CEO's of the largest exporters, and high ranked government officials. Only companies with annual revenue above US $1 million were selected. A census was made since the number of companies in those conditions was limited to 55 units. A research pointed to a close relation between the external pressures and environmental answers from the companies. These pressures were necessary so that firms could improve their environmental actions.

Este é um desafio que exige boa gestão e apresenta-se como um desafio permanente ante as exigências de uma legislação estatal mais rígida e uma mudança de valores na sociedade, que promovem uma rejeição a modelos organizacionais que colocam o meio ambiente em segundo plano. O Estado do Ceará vêm apresentando um crescimento significativo no seu parque industrial, o que leva a uma preocupação em relação aos impactos gerados por estas indústrias. Assim, o objetivo geral da pesquisa é investigar o comportamento das maiores indústrias exportadoras do Ceará, considerando seus condicionantes e motivações para o investimento em ações de gestão ambiental. A metodologia utiliza métodos quantitativos na análise de dados com o auxilio do software Sphinx e tem uma abordagem qualitativa na interpretação das entrevistas. A coleta de dados primários foi realizada junto aos principais responsáveis pela política ambiental das maiores empresas exportadoras do Estado, por meio de survey na modalidade de questionários estruturados. O universo foi determinado em função da maior exposição à mercados externos. O critério para seleção das empresas foi o faturamento anual em exportações, que deveria ser superior a U$ 1 milhão. Foi realizado um censo já que o numero total de empresas que atendia ao critério estabelecido, limitou o universo a 55 unidades. A pesquisa apresenta em seus resultados de forma clara, a força da relação entre as pressões externas e respostas das empresas, ou seja, a identificação de uma postura empresarial ambiental predominantemente reativa no que se refere aos investimentos em gestão ambiental, porém, estas pressões têm sido necessárias para que as empresas mudem sua concepção acerca do tema meio ambiente.Escola Brasileira de Administração Pública e de Empresas da Fundação Getulio Vargas2005-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/4934Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 3 No. 3 (2005); 1 a 16Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 3 Núm. 3 (2005); 1 a 16Cadernos EBAPE.BR; v. 3 n. 3 (2005); 1 a 161679-3951reponame:Cadernos EBAPE.BRinstname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/4934/3668Coimbra, Danielle BatistaOliveira, Francisco Correa deinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2016-10-10T17:07:30Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/4934Revistahttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebapehttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/oaicadernosebape@fgv.br||cadernosebape@fgv.br1679-39511679-3951opendoar:2024-05-13T09:59:19.794959Cadernos EBAPE.BR - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)true
