O peso das palavras, o choque dos ideais: uma análise crítica dos indicadores de sustentabilidade como critérios para a gestão da comunicação organizacional / The weight of words, the clash of ideals: a critical analysis of Indicators of Sustainability criteria for the management of Organizational Communication.

Eduardo Augusto da Silva

A new world order is demanding effectively differentiated postures, organizations from all sectors and spheres, accompanied by the growing surveillance society through mechanisms for evaluating their activities. In order to define ethical parameters have been and are being developed models of accountability of corporate activities. Through them, it is intended that the society and the market assume the role of Auditors of the process and transparency in social results achieved. Some of these mechanisms are increasingly propagated Indicators of Corporate Social responsibility and, more recently, indicators of sustainability, which seem to seek to respond more adequately to the expectations of a social conscience, very frightened with the present and the future of the planet. The overall objective of this research was to examine if Organizational Communication policies can use the main models and guides for the assessment of business actions as effective certification criteria in the areas of CSR and sustainability, without configuring equalitarian strategies to promote institutional image and marketing. The search method used in this work was the case study, the units of analysis were the models for evaluation of CSR and sustainability of greater relevance in the Brazilian scenario, whether they are: GRI-Global Reporting Initiative, Ethos and Guide the ISE corporate sustainability index BM &FBOVESPA. The technique of collecting data from this study was bibliographic search. Through the Comparability Model developed to analyze the indicators selected, the result was that none of them passed the test; all of them required adjustments to achieve its proper functionality. Thus, in determining Organizational Communication policy must take care to engage the whole organization towards fulfilling the prerogatives of models of evaluation of RSC and sustainability, because, besides the high cost that this can generate, and physical, structural efforts and personal, doesn\ t mean the effective convergence for undertaking socially responsible or sustainable [erroneously]. Soon, there is a risk of reductionism and impoverishment of the management of corporate communications that drive their actions in accordance with the results of indicators or indexes of RSC or sustainability. Depending on the diversity of types and variables and themes that sustainability involves, it seems dangerous to use reports for definition of quantum, synthesized in adjective for a select group of organizations. The margins to the subjectivity and judgments of values are perniciously open for unsuspecting verdicts of specialists.
