Abstract(s)
A temática da sustentabilidade assume-se, cada vez mais, como uma preocupação
central para a sociedade e para as organizações. A rápida evolução do mercado e a
necessidade de assegurar a sobrevivência gera implicações para as gerações atuais e
futuras.
O presente estudo tem por objetivo principal compreender a perceção do
contributo da formação em Recursos Humanos para uma prática profissional de Recursos
Humanos Sustentável. Para tal, centraliza-se a reflexão na perspetiva dos estudantes
finalistas na formação em RH e dos Coordenadores/Diretores de formação de RH no
Ensino Superior acerca da forma como a Educação aborda as questões da sustentabilidade
nas IES e na formação superior em Recursos Humanos. O conceito de Gestão de Recursos
Humanos Sustentável e os desafios de sustentabilidade inerentes à prática profissional de
RH são igualmente analisados.
Para o presente estudo foi realizada uma abordagem metodológica qualitativa,
recorrendo-se à técnica de entrevistas semiestruturadas. Os resultados evidenciam que a
a formação superior em RH não dá respostas claras face ao desafio da sustentabilidade,
os estudantes não se encontram suficientemente preparados para saber agir enquanto
futuros profissionais de RH num ambiente organizacional sobre este fenómeno. Os
Coordenadores/Diretores de formação em RH não possuem a formação necessária na área
para incutir e transmitir aos estudantes o conhecimento sobre esta realidade. No entanto,
os participantes afirmam que a educação formativa é essencial para a divulgação destas
práticas sustentáveis que apelam à consciência dos cidadãos. As principais conclusões do
estudo indicam também que os participantes consideram relevante a veiculação da
temática sustentabilidade nas práticas de gestão de recursos humanos no sentido em que
contribui para uma vantagem competitiva no mercado, assim como, a valorização dos
colaboradores.
The theme of sustainability is increasingly becoming a central concern for society and organizations. The rapid evolution of the market and the need to ensure survival generates implications for current and future generations. The world's rapid evolution and the implications it has for current and future generations have alerted society and organizations to the need to address and act on the issue of sustainability. This investigation's primary objective is to understand the perceived contribution of Human Resources courses to a sustainable professional Human Resources practice. In this regard, this investigation aims to analyze, from the perspective of final-year HR students and Coordinators/Directors of HR courses in universities, how education addresses sustainability issues at Higher Education Institutions and in RH courses. The concept of Sustainable Human Resources Management and the sustainability challenges inherent in professional HR practice are also analyzed. For this study, a qualitative methodological approach was applied, using semi structured interviews. The results show that university courses in HR do not provide clear answers to the challenge of sustainability, and that students are not sufficiently prepared to act as future HR professionals in an organizational environment about this phenomenon. The Coordinators/Directors of HR courses do not have the necessary training in the area to instill and pass on knowledge of this reality to students. However, the participants say that education is the fundamental place for publicizing these sustainable practices that appeal to the conscience of citizens. The main conclusions of the study also indicate that the participants consider it relevant to convey the theme of sustainability in human resources management practices in the sense that it contributes to a competitive advantage in the market, as well as valuing employees.
