Avaliação de elementos para implementação de um SGA em uma empresa do ramo logístico estudo de caso

Abstract

Companies are increasingly seeking solutions to reduce the environmental impacts generated by their processes, in a sustainable and efficient way. Researching ways to implement an EMS in companies in the logistics sector in order to evaluate the elements necessary to implement an effective system and in accordance with the ISO 14001 standard is necessary. The objective of this work was to conduct a survey by means of case studies of companies in the logistics sector in order to identify bottlenecks in the processes aiming to offer considerations focused on the importance of having an EMS in the organization, presenting suggestions for improving the processes for the environmental management of the company and solutions to minimize difficulties encountered in the area of people management. A survey of methods that contribute to the implementation of an EMS was carried out, highlighting the PDCA cycle that is the basis of the ISO 14001 standard. It was verified that the company obtains a continuous improvement of its processes as a whole, generates efficiency by reducing the organization’s costs and is able to better manage its employees through awareness and guidance on reducing the environmental impacts generated by the company, which imposes the verification that despite the difficulties encountered in the implementation process and later in the maintenance of an effective and certified EMS, the organizational need and also the feasibility of deploying it is verified.
