Processo de recrutamento e seleção de pessoas no contexto industrial da empresa Recer: um caso de estudo

A Gestão de Recursos Humanos constitui um tema que, nas últimas décadas tem vindo a assumir uma grande centralidade nas práticas organizacionais, devido à crescente valorização dos Recursos Humanos por parte das organizações. Atualmente pretende-se que a Gestão de Recursos Humanos seja elevada a função de natureza estratégica, participando nas principais decisões e intervindo prioritariamente nos processos críticos de mudança organizacional. Uma boa ligação entre as políticas e as práticas de Gestão de Recursos Humanos é considerada um elemento chave para o sucesso da empresa. As organizações são constituídas por pessoas e dependem delas para atingir os seus objetivos. Com o presente relatório proponho-me refletir sobre o sistema de Gestão de Recursos Humanos e o processo de recrutamento e seleção de pessoas no contexto industrial da empresa Recer, através do desenvolvimento de um caso de estudo onde analiso de que forma a empresa valoriza os recursos humanos. Pretendo ainda dar a conhecer as tarefas desenvolvidas durante o estágio curricular, que foram essenciais para caracterizar o setor de R.H e a importância que este tem na empresa. Por último apresento um balanço com as minhas considerações finais acerca da realização do estágio e uma breve conclusão sobre a valorização das pessoas enquanto capital humanoThe objective of this paper is to think over the Human Resources Management system and the Recruitment and Selection process of people for the company Recer. The Human Resources Management is a theme that in last decades has taken a central role in the organizations, mostly due to the fact of the uprising value of Human Resources in this same organizations. Nowadays HRM changed its nature to a more strategic one, getting a lead role in major decisions and priority intervention in critical processes of organizational change. A good connection between GRH’s policies and practices is a key element for the success of the company. Organizations are made of the people that work in them and so they rely on them to achieve their goals and have success. That is why the Recruitment and Selection process is an essential tool for the effectiveness of the results. With the present paper the objective was to analyse the Human Resource Management system, as well the process of recruiting and selection of new employers in the industrial context of the company Recer. This was made by developing a case study where I analyse the way the company values their human resources. The paper also had the objective to let know all the tasks performed during the internship, which were all very relevant for the end result. In the end, I present my final considerations regarding the internship period and the conclusions about how important are people as a resource in the company RecerMestrado em Administração e Gestão Públic

Fatores de risco e de proteção psicossociais no trabalho: um estudo qualitativo nas forças de segurança

O presente estudo é exploratório e de natureza qualitativa. O principal objetivo é identificar os riscos psicossociais (RP) específicos a que estão expostos os indivíduos que trabalham nas forças de segurança em Portugal. Por outro lado, pretende-se identificar quais os fatores protetores que estes indivíduos identificam na sua profissão. Este estudo envolveu 21 sujeitos. Os dados foram recolhidos durante o mês de maio de 2016. A todos os participantes foi realizada uma entrevista semiestruturada, em que o guião apresentava quatro grandes seções: as questões introdutórias; os RP e uma situação problema, com base na adaptação da técnica dos incidentes críticos (faire le point); a ação institucional e a mudança institucional. Os dados foram analisados através da técnica de análise de conteúdo, realizada de acordo com as indicações de Bauer. Para uma melhor sistematização e organização da codificação, elaborou-se um sistema de categorias. Utilizou-se, assim, uma abordagem mista em que se definiram categorias à priori (com base no modelo dos RP e no modelo das exigências-recursos) e à posteriori. Resultados evidenciam um desconhecimento do conceito dos RP por parte da maioria dos participantes. Dos 26 RP mencionados por mais participantes, 13 (baixo salário, pobre comunicação) evidenciaram-se como sendo os mais preocupantes para estes profissionais. Os recursos que se destacaram foram o suporte dos colegas, da família e a relevância atribuída à missão da organização na sua prestabilidade à sociedade. Nas práticas e políticas institucionais, verificou-se que a totalidade dos participantes indicou que a instituição não tem desenvolvido ações de prevenção.The present study is exploratory and qualitative. The main goal is to identify specific psychosocial risk (PR) that the Portuguese law enforcement officers are exposed to. Additionally, it is intended to identify the resources recognized by these individuals in their job. This study involved 21 participants. The data was collected during May 2016. A semi-structured interview was conducted to all participants, which script presented four main sections: introduction questions; the PR and a critical situation, based on adaptation of critical incident technique (Faire le Point); institutional action and institutional changing. The data was analyzed through content analysis technique according to Bauer’s referrals. For a better systematization and coding organization a category system was elaborated. Therefore a mixed approach was used by defining à priori categories (based on the Risks for Work-Related Stress Model and the Job Demand-Resources Model ) and à posteriori categories. Results evidenced that most participants didn’t know PR concept. From the 26 most mentioned PR, 13 (low salary, poor communication) evidenced as the most worrying for this working group. The most highlighted resources were colleagues, family support and assigned relevance to organization mission and its helpfulness in society. Concerning institutional practices and policies, all participants pointed that the institution had not developed prevention actions

Different infective forms trigger distinct immune response in experimental Chagas disease.

Although metacyclic and blood trypomastigotes are completely functional in relation to parasite-host interaction and/or target cell invasion, they differ in the molecules present on the surface. Thus, aspects related to the variability that the forms of T. cruzi interacts with host cells may lead to fundamental implications on the immune response against this parasite and, consequently, the clinical evolution of Chagas disease. We have shown that BT infected mice presented higher levels of parasitemia during all the acute phase of infection. Moreover, the infection with either MT or BT forms resulted in increased levels of total leukocytes, monocytes and lymphocytes, specifically later for MT and earlier for BT. The infection with BT forms presented earlier production of proinflammatory cytokine TNF-α and later of IFN-γ by both T cells subpopulations. This event was accompanied by an early cardiac inflammation with an exacerbation of this process at the end of the acute phase. On the other hand, infection with MT forms result in an early production of IFN-γ, with subsequent control in the production of this cytokine by IL-10, which provided to these animals an immunomodulatory profile in the end of the acute phase. These results are in agreement with what was found for cardiac inflammation where animals infected with MT forms showed intense cardiac inflammation later at infection, with a decrease in the same at the end of this phase. In summary, our findings emphasize the importance of taking into account the inoculums source of T. cruzi, since vectorial or transfusional routes of T. cruzi infection may trigger distinct parasite-host interactions during the acute phase that may influence relevant biological aspects of chronic Chagas disease

Comparison of daylighting simulation workflows and results using plugins for BIM and 3D Modeling programs: application on early phases of design process

The present paper investigated the application of the daylighting analysis features of the Insight BIM plugin, comparatively to DIVA, a plugin for a 3D Nurbs modeling software. Considering the early phases of the design process, workflows, simulation results and processing times were analyzed, focusing on the prediction of static (illuminance level) and dynamic (sDA300,50%) metrics. Simulations on both tools were performed in the context of analyzing the daylight behavior in a deep office room model, with and without light shelves. Results indicate that Insight has limitations compared to DIVA, especially concerning input data configuration flexibility. Simulation results presented significant similarity between Insight and DIVA in most cases, being the direct sun case the one in which illuminance levels differed the most. Insight presented longer processing time for the static metric and similar average time for the dynamic metric. Work findings indicate that Insight has important potential to contribute to daylighting analysis on early phases of design process, and points out to barriers to its adoption and correct use. Authors expect this paper to benefit architects, engineers and students on the comprehension of both tools

A Contribuição dos Museus para a Institucionalização e Difusão da Paleontologia.

Since the calls “cabinets of curiosities", the essence of natural history was consolidating itself with the birth of the museums and the development of the Museums of Natural History. This consolidation was reached through following activities: expeditions, field trips, collection classification works, catalogues of diffusion of scientific knowledge, educativ activities and expositions. The present paper intends to discuss the importance of the museal institutions for the studies of Paleontology; since the museums of Natural History had exerted a pioneering paper in the institutionalization of certain areas of knowledge, as Palaeontology, Anthropology and Experimental Physiology, in Brazil. The Paleontological studies in museums had collaborated in the specialization and modernization of the appearance of "new museum idea". As this new concept the museum is a space of diffusion of scientific knowledge, represented as an object that reflects the identity of the society without an obligator linking with physical constructions. However, the Brazilian museums have been sufficientlyobsolete, with problems that involve acquisition and maintenance of collections to production of temporary or permanent exhibitions. When the Brazilian institutions of natural history are analyzed they are not organized on the new museum conception and the digital age as the North American and European ones. Despite the difficulties found by the Museums since its birth as Institution in the 18th century, the contemporary development of Museology and Palaeontology as Science had contributed for the consolidation and institutionalization of both, helping the diffusion of scientific knowledge

Insights into the posttranslational structural heterogeneity of thyroglobulin and its role in the development, diagnosis, and management of benign and malignant thyroid diseases

Thyroglobulin (Tg) is the major glycoprotein produced by the thyroid gland, where it serves as a template for thyroid hormone synthesis and as an intraglandular store of iodine. Measurement of Tg levels in serum is of great practical importance in the follow-up of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC), a setting in which elevated levels after total thyroidectomy are indicative of residual or recurrent disease. The most recent methods for serum Tg measurement are monoclonal antibody-based and are highly sensitive. However, major challenges remain regarding the interpretation of the results obtained with these immunometric methods, particularly in patients with endogenous antithyroglobulin antibodies or in the presence of heterophile antibodies, which may produce falsely low or high Tg values, respectively. The increased prevalence of antithyroglobulin antibodies in patients with DTC, as compared with the general population, raises the very pertinent possibility that tumor Tg may be more immunogenic. This inference makes sense, as the tumor microenvironment (tumor cells plus normal host cells) is characterized by several changes that could induce posttranslational modification of many proteins, including Tg. Attempts to understand the structure of Tg have been made for several decades, but findings have generally been incomplete due to technical hindrances to analysis of such a large protein (660 kDa). This review article will explore the complex structure of Tg and the potential role of its marked heterogeneity in our understanding of normal thyroid biology and neoplastic processes.FapespCNPqCapesUniv Fed Sao Paulo EPM Unifesp, Escola Paulista Med, Lab Endocrinol Mol & Translac, Div Endocrinol & Metab,Dept Med, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilUniv Fed Mato Grosso do Sul UFMS, Fac Med Famed, Dept Med, Clin Integrada 5,Endocrinol & Metab, Campo Grande, MS, BrazilUniv Fed Sao Paulo, EPM, Dept Bioquim, Div Mol Biol, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilUniv Fed Sao Paulo EPM Unifesp, Escola Paulista Med, Lab Endocrinol Mol & Translac, Div Endocrinol & Metab,Dept Med, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilUniv Fed Sao Paulo, EPM, Dept Bioquim, Div Mol Biol, Sao Paulo, SP, BrazilWeb of Scienc

Cardiovascular risk markers in polycystic ovary syndrome in women with and without insulin resistance

OBJETIVO: avaliar se a presença de resistência à insulina (RI) modifica fatores de risco cardiovascular em mulheres com síndrome dos ovários policísticos (SOP). MÉTODOS: estudo transversal no qual 60 mulheres com SOP, com idade entre 18 e 35 anos e sem uso de hormônios, foram avaliadas. A RI foi avaliada por meio do quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI). RI foi definida como QUICKI <0,33. As seguintes variáveis foram comparadas entre o grupo com e sem RI: antropométricas (peso, altura, circunferência da cintura, pressão arterial e frequência cardíaca), laboratoriais (homocisteína, interleucina-6, fator de necrose tumoral-&#945;, testosterona, fração de androgênios livre, colesterol total e frações, triglicerídeos, proteína C reativa e insulina, glicose) e ultrassonográficas (distensibilidade e espessura íntima-média da carótida e dilatação mediada por fluxo da artéria braquial). RESULTADOS: Dezoito mulheres (30%) apresentaram RI. As mulheres com RI, comparadas às sem RI, apresentaram diferenças significativas nos seguintes marcadores antropométricos (SOP com RI e sem RI respectivamente): índice de massa corporal (35,5±5,6 versus 23,9±4,8 kg/m², p<0,01;), cintura (108,1±11,53 versus 79,5±11,1 cm, p<0,01) e pressão arterial sistólica (128,0±10,8 versus 114,0±8,9 mmHg, p<0,01) e pressão arterial diastólica (83,6±9,6 versus 77,0±7,5 mmHg, p=0,01). Também foram observadas diferenças significativas nos seguintes marcadores laboratoriais: triglicerídeos (120,0±56,5 versus 77,7±53,4 mg/dL, p=0,01), HDL (43,06±6,3 versus 40,4±10,8, p=0,01) e proteína C reativa (7,9±10,5 mg/L versus 2,6±3,2 mg/L, p<0,01), insulina (28,0±18,1 versus 5,3±2,4 µU/mL, p<0,01) e glicose (93,5±10,0 versus 87,5±8,7 mg/dL, p=0,02). Adicionalmente, dois dos três marcadores ultrassonográficos de risco cardiovascular também foram diferentes entre os grupos: distensibilidade carotídea (0,24±0,05 versus 0,30±0,08 mmHg-1, p<0,01) e espessura íntima-média da carótida (0,52±0,08 versus 0,43±0,09 mm, p<0,01). Além disso, a proporção de síndrome metabólica foi maior nas mulheres com RI (nove casos=50% versus três casos=7,1%, p<0,01). CONCLUSÕES: mulheres com SOP e RI apresentam diferenças significativas em vários marcadores ultrassonográficos, séricos e antropométricos que apontam para uma elevação no risco cardiovascular, quando comparadas a mulheres com SOP sem RI. Diante desses dados, a determinação sistemática da avaliação de RI em mulheres com SOP pode ajudar a identificar pacientes de risco cardiovascular.PURPOSE: to evaluate whether the presence of insulin resistance (IR) alters cardiovascular risk factors in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (POS). METHODS: transversal study where 60 POS women with ages from 18 to 35 years old, with no hormone intake, were evaluated. IR was assessed through the quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI) and defined as QUICKI <0.33. The following variables have been compared between the groups with or without IR: anthropometric (weight, height, waist circumference, arterial blood pressure, cardiac frequency), laboratorial (homocysteine, interleucines-6, factor of tumoral-&#945; necrosis, testosterone, fraction of free androgen, total cholesterol and fractions, triglycerides, C reactive protein, insulin, glucose), and ultrasonographical (distensibility and carotid intima-media thickness, dilation mediated by the brachial artery flux). RESULTS: Eighteen women (30%) presented IR and showed significant differences in the following anthropometric markers, as compared to the women without IR (POS with and without IR respectively): body mass index (35.56±5.69 kg/m² versus 23.90±4.88 kg/m², p<0.01), waist (108.17±11.53 versus 79.54±11.12 cm, p<0.01), systolic blood pressure (128.00±10.80 mmHg versus 114.07±8.97 mmHg, p<0.01), diastolic blood pressure (83.67±9.63 mmHg versus 77.07±7.59 mmHg, p=0.01). It has also been observed significant differences in the following laboratorial markers: triglycerides (120.00±56.53 mg/dL versus 77.79±53.46 mg/dL, p=0.01), HDL (43.06±6.30 mg/dL versus 40.45±10.82 mg/dL, p=0.01), reactive C protein (7.98±10.54 mg/L versus 2.61±3.21 mg/L, p<0.01), insulin (28.01±18.18 µU/mL versus 5.38±2.48 µU/mL, p<0.01), glucose (93.56±10.00 mg/dL versus 87.52±8.75 mg/dL, p=0.02). Additionally, two out of the three ultrasonographical markers of cardiovascular risk were also different between the groups: carotid distensibility (0.24±0.05 mmHg-1 versus 0.30±0.08 mmHg-1, p<0.01) and carotid intima-media thickness (0.52±0.08 mm versus 0.43±0.09, p<0.01). Besides, the metabolic syndrome ratio was higher in women with IR (nine cases=50% versus three cases=7.1%, p<0.01). CONCLUSIONS: POS and IR women present significant differences in several ultrasonographical, seric and anthropometric markers, which point out to higher cardiovascular risk, as compared to women without POS and IR. In face of that, the systematic IR evaluation in POS women may help to identify patients with cardiovascular risk

Post-natal prognostic factors in CDH: experience of 11 years in a referral center in Brazil

Objective: To describe post-natal risk factors associated with death in Newborns (NB) with Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) in a Brazilian reference center. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, post-natal clinical factors of all NB diagnosed with CDH were reviewed in an 11-year period (2007‒2018). The primary outcome was death. Secondary outcomes included clinical features, prognostic indexes, type of mechanical ventilation, complications during hospitalization and surgical repair. Results: After applying the exclusion criteria, the authors analyzed 137 charts. Overall mortality was 59% (81/137), and the highest rates were observed for low-birth-weight NB (87%), syndromic phenotype (92%), and those with major malformations (100%). Prognostic indexes such as Apgar, SNAPPE-II and 24hOI (best oxygenation index in 24 hours) were all associated with poor evolution. In a multivariate analysis, only birth weight and 24hOI were statistically significant risk factors for mortality, with a reduction in mortality risk of 17.1% (OR&nbsp;=&nbsp;0.829, 95% IC 0.72‒0.955, p&nbsp;=&nbsp;0.009) for each additional 100g at birth and an increase by 26.5% (OR&nbsp;=&nbsp;1.265, 95% IC 1.113‒1.436, p&nbsp;=&nbsp;0.0003) for each unitary increase at the 24hOI. Conclusion: Prognostic indexes are an important tool for predicting outcomes and improving resource allocation. Post-natal risk factors may be more suitable for settings where antenatal diagnosis is not universal. Classical risk factors, such as prematurity, low birth weight, higher need for supportive care, and poorer prognostic indexes were associated with mortality in our CDH population
