Responsabilidade socioambiental: um estudo sobre as práticas de esg no setor farmacêutico nacional

Abstract

Faced with the problem related to difficulties in planning and setting priorities for ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) practices, the general objective of the project is to identify which ESG themes companies are focusing on in these reports, in this case, Pague Menos, Raia Drogasil and Hypera Pharma, which are companies in the pharmaceutical sector. The research methodology is based on qualitative aspects and on a thematic analysis of the reports made available by the companies. In view of this, a thematic analysis was carried out, bringing together several dimensions related to ESG practices and after doing so, the most prominent issues were described and developed in more detail in the following items. After analyzing the data, it can be concluded that the three groups have different interests regarding their reports, despite having many similarities between them. The company Pague Menos has a greater focus on the social impacts that the company generates, in view of its various social programs. The company Raia Drogasil has a greater focus on the environmental issue, especially waste management and its GHG emission management. Finally, at Hypera Pharma, there was a greater focus on governance issues, especially ethics. Companies had less focus, mainly on aspects related to labor laws. Finally, even though some pharmaceutical companies operate in different contexts, reports are quite similar in the aforementioned aspects, differing more only in environmental issues.
