Resumo: | The study seeks to identify and analyze the relationship between strategic type and environmental management practices adopted by Brazilian footwear export companies. Based on the analysis it was not possible to conclude, confirming initial assumptions, that the environmental management practices adopted by Brazilian companies of the footwear sector are associated with the strategic profile. Regarding the relationship between strategic type and environmental management practices, correlation tests confirm the existence of association among the variable: strategic profile, family assistance and environmental education for employees. Among the environmental practices analyzed were the investments made in family assistance and environmental education that differentiate the groups of companies. Additionally, the correspondence analysis showed that the prospector’s companies strongly invest in environmental aspects rather than in social aspects, probably because this type of investment give them greater competitiveness in the market. The data show a greater concern with aspects related to internal management. Environmental management despite its importance for business competitiveness is not yet present in the strategic management of most Brazilian companies. The average level of social investment is not yet considered a factor of influence in entrepreneurial action. |

Com a adoção de modelos bivariados e multivariados de análise, buscou-se caracterizar a relação entre o tipo estratégico e as práticas de gestão socioambiental. Com base nas análises efetuadas foi possível concluir, confirmando os pressupostos iniciais que orientaram o estudo, que as práticas de gestão socioambiental adotadas por empresas brasileiras do setor de calçados estão associadas ao perfil estratégico predominante. No que se refere à relação entre tipo estratégico e práticas de gestão socioambiental, os testes de correlação realizados permitem afirmar existência de associação entre as variáveis: perfil estratégico, assistência familiar e educação ambiental para os funcionários. Dentre as práticas sociombientais analisadas, são os investimentos efetuados em assistência familiar e em educação ambiental que diferenciam os grupos de empresas foco do estudo. Adicionalmente, a análise de correspondência evidenciou que as empresas prospectoras investem mais fortemente em aspectos ambientais do que em aspectos sociais provavelmente porque esse tipo de investimento lhes confere maior competitividade no seu mercado de atuação. Os dados evidenciam uma maior preocupação com aspectos relacionados com a gestão ambiental interna, que dizem respeito à gestão e a controles operacionais. A gestão ambiental apesar de sua importância para a competitividade empresarial, ainda não está presente na gestão estratégica da maior parte das empresas brasileiras. O nível médio de investimento social, ainda não é considerado como um fator de influência direta na ação empresarial.Edunisc - Universidade de Santa Cruz do Sul2009-11-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://online.unisc.br/seer/index.php/redes/article/view/90710.17058/redes.v14i2.907Redes ; Vol. 14 No. 2 (2009); 103-121Redes; Vol. 14 Núm. 2 (2009); 103-121Redes; Vol. 14 No. 2 (2009); 103-121Redes; v. 14 n. 2 (2009); 103-1211982-6745reponame:Redes (Santa Cruz do Sul.
