O objetivo do estudo consiste em identificar o índice de sustentabilidade de uma indústria de eletrodomésticos a partir da aplicação do método Sistema Contábil Gerencial Ambiental (SICOGEA), com foco em toda a cadeia produtiva e principalmente nos projetos sociais e ambientais. Para tanto, realizou-se uma pesquisa por meio de um estudo de caso, de caráter descritivo, com abordagem qualitativa dos dados. Para coleta dos dados foi utilizada uma lista de verificação e para análise utilizaram-se critérios demonstrados na metodologia visando medir o nível de sustentabilidade. Os resultados alcançados mostram que a empresa possui um sistema de gestão ambiental que orienta o trabalho em conjunto de todos os setores, com princípios de melhoria contínua, com tratamento de falhas de forma ética e transparente. Como fruto deste estudo, a indústria obteve um índice geral de sustentabilidade de 73%, portanto, é visível que as ações que a indústria vem praticando são benéficas à comunidade e prioritárias para a redução de impactos ambientais. Este trabalho pode servir de base para aplicação e incentivo em outros ramos empresariais.UFRGS2016-03-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por Paresapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/ConTexto/article/view/47255ConTexto - Contabilidade em Texto; v. 15 n. 31 (2015): set./dez. 20152175-87511676-6016reponame:ConTextoinstname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSporhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/ConTexto/article/view/47255/pdf_56Domenico, Daniela DiMazzioni, SadyProvin, Maicon AndreToniello, Lucianoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2016-04-08T20:37:15Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/47255Revistahttps://www.seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/ConTexto/indexPUBhttpw://www.seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/ConTexto/oaifernanda.momo@ufrgs.br||contexto@ufrgs.br2175-87511676-6016opendoar:2016-04-08T20:37:15ConTexto - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false |
