Resumo

Resumo Embora as temáticas de níveis de maturidade da gestão ambiental empresarial e a adoção de práticas de GSCM estejam se consolidando, elas percorreram, até o momento, um longo caminho desconectadas, embora ambas tenham sua gênese circunscrita à sustentabilidade empresarial. Buscou-se, por meio de múltiplos casos, a caracterização de um padrão lógico de adoção de práticas de GSCM inerentes a cada nível de maturidade em gestão ambiental. Com base no estudo de cinco casos de empresas inseridas em cadeias produtivas de alto impacto ambiental (setor de suprimentos de defensivos agrícolas, setor de pilhas e baterias e setor de reciclagem de chumbo, buscou-se identificar o relacionamento entre práticas de Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) e níveis de maturidade em gestão ambiental. Para o alcance do objetivo, foi realizada uma sistematização junto à literatura que versa sobre maturidade de gestão ambiental e tipologia das práticas de GSCM. Os principais resultados apontam que: no primeiro nível de maturidade em gestão ambiental, o reativo, as organizações adotam práticas de GSCM específicas relacionadas à imposição da legislação; no nível preventivo de maturidade em gestão ambiental, as organizações adotam práticas de GSCM relacionadas ao retorno de investimentos e à redução de custos operacionais; e no nível proativo de maturidade em gestão ambiental, as organizações tendem a adotar práticas relacionadas à inovação de produtos e processos e práticas comunicacionais ambientais, visando obter vantagens competitivas baseadas em gestão ambiental. Até o momento, este artigo trata da primeira pesquisa a relacionar níveis de maturidade de gestão ambiental a práticas de GSCM, aplicada a cinco casos com alto impacto ambiental do Brasil.

Abstract

Abstract Although the thematic maturity levels of corporate environmental management and the adoption of Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) practices are consolidating, they have passed through long ways disconnected, given that both have their genesis circumscribed to corporate sustainability. The aim of this qualitative study was to identify the relationship between GSCM practices and maturity levels of environmental management. Literature systematization was carried out dealing with the maturity levels of environmental management and the typology of GSCM practices to reach the study objective. The study was based on multiple cases studies from five different companies inserted in the production chains with high environmental impact: the sector of pesticides, the sector of batteries, and the sector of lead recycling. It was sought the characterization of a logical standard for the adoption of GSCM practices inherent to each maturity level in environmental management. The main results indicate that: at the reactive maturity level in environmental management, organizations adopt specific GSCM practices related to the imposition of legislation; at the preventive level of maturity, organizations adopt GSCM practices related to the return of investments and the reduction of operational costs; and at the proactive level of maturity, organizations tend to adopt practices related to product innovation and environmental communicational processes and practices, aiming to obtain competitive advantages always based on environmental management.
