O Processo de dimensionamento de pessoal de uma universidade pública federal: uma proposta de aperfeiçoamento pela gestão por competências

Abstract

The organizations, public or private, are inserted in an economic, political and social environment that is remarkably dynamic and evolutionary. It is becoming increasingly necessary that Brazilian public organizations incorporate values, attitudes and beliefs similar to new business practices, based on transparency, trust and support between the State and society. In this context, the People Management area, known as Human Resources (HR), tends to be redefined, acting as a strategic bias segment, due its direct relationship with people, the main asset of organizations. Based on the important role played by the People Management area within the organizational strategy, the Management by Competencies becomes an alternative to the optimization of personnel in the public sector, by allowing the flexible management of the profiles, knowledge and skills of the employees, collaborating for quantitative optimization and qualitative dimension of people in the organization. As Son and Serrano points out (2016), an adequate dimensioning has the right team in the right place and, above all, doing the tasks according to their competencies. Thus, the present study, with a descriptive character and a qualitative and quantitative approach, proposes to analyze the personnel sizing process in the (UFAL), analyzing the criteria used in the management of people, under the light of Competence Management. The qualitative approach, based on a semi-structured interview in the Personnel Dimensioning Sector of the Human Resources and Labor Management Office (PROGEP), made it possible to understand the format of the people sizing process and which variables are considered; the quantitative data provided to analyze possible distortions of server stocking, as well as their perception about the performance of the Personnel Management team in the university, regarding the flow processes and management of the staff and how the tools of Management by Competencies can subsidize such probes, seeking to answer the research question and the objectives outlined.
