Rotatividade na empresa Gerencial Brasil / Rotativity in the company Management Brazil

O objetivo do presente artigo é apresentar o alto índice de Rotatividade dos vendedores externos da empresa avaliada. A empresa Gerencial Brasil, uma prestadora de serviços na área de vendas externas, fundada em 1994, tem como principal cliente a Vivo S.A. (antiga GVT - Global Village Telecom), localizada no Centro de Curitiba/PR. A fim de avaliar o índice de rotatividade, foi realizada uma pesquisa de campo através da aplicação de um questionário com as possíveis causas que levariam as demissões dos colaboradores. Assim a pesquisa bibliográfica e a pesquisa com o questionário nesta organização tornam-se essenciais para o desenvolvimento deste trabalho. Após a análise dos dados coletados verificou-se que os colaboradores dificilmente pedem demissão, porém são demitidos por falhas endógenas, isso é, existem falhas nos procedimentos adotados pela organização nos processos de treinamentos. Por fim, foram apresentadas propostas de melhorias em diversos aspectos, com base na análise dos resultados da pesquisa aplicada, que envolvem plano de carreira, mudança no espaço e investimento em treinamentos, coaching qualificado para aplicar o treinamento, plano de saúde mais acessível, entre outros. Com isso espera-se mitigar o índice analisado e avigorar ainda mais a qualidade Gerencial Brasil

Mitochondrial physiology

As the knowledge base and importance of mitochondrial physiology to evolution, health and disease expands, the necessity for harmonizing the terminology concerning mitochondrial respiratory states and rates has become increasingly apparent. The chemiosmotic theory establishes the mechanism of energy transformation and coupling in oxidative phosphorylation. The unifying concept of the protonmotive force provides the framework for developing a consistent theoretical foundation of mitochondrial physiology and bioenergetics. We follow the latest SI guidelines and those of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) on terminology in physical chemistry, extended by considerations of open systems and thermodynamics of irreversible processes. The concept-driven constructive terminology incorporates the meaning of each quantity and aligns concepts and symbols with the nomenclature of classical bioenergetics. We endeavour to provide a balanced view of mitochondrial respiratory control and a critical discussion on reporting data of mitochondrial respiration in terms of metabolic flows and fluxes. Uniform standards for evaluation of respiratory states and rates will ultimately contribute to reproducibility between laboratories and thus support the development of data repositories of mitochondrial respiratory function in species, tissues, and cells. Clarity of concept and consistency of nomenclature facilitate effective transdisciplinary communication, education, and ultimately further discovery

Neotropical freshwater fisheries : A dataset of occurrence and abundance of freshwater fishes in the Neotropics

The Neotropical region hosts 4225 freshwater fish species, ranking first among the world's most diverse regions for freshwater fishes. Our NEOTROPICAL FRESHWATER FISHES data set is the first to produce a large-scale Neotropical freshwater fish inventory, covering the entire Neotropical region from Mexico and the Caribbean in the north to the southern limits in Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay. We compiled 185,787 distribution records, with unique georeferenced coordinates, for the 4225 species, represented by occurrence and abundance data. The number of species for the most numerous orders are as follows: Characiformes (1289), Siluriformes (1384), Cichliformes (354), Cyprinodontiformes (245), and Gymnotiformes (135). The most recorded species was the characid Astyanax fasciatus (4696 records). We registered 116,802 distribution records for native species, compared to 1802 distribution records for nonnative species. The main aim of the NEOTROPICAL FRESHWATER FISHES data set was to make these occurrence and abundance data accessible for international researchers to develop ecological and macroecological studies, from local to regional scales, with focal fish species, families, or orders. We anticipate that the NEOTROPICAL FRESHWATER FISHES data set will be valuable for studies on a wide range of ecological processes, such as trophic cascades, fishery pressure, the effects of habitat loss and fragmentation, and the impacts of species invasion and climate change.
