Homem, trabalho e meio ambiente : desenvolvimento e sustentabilidade

Abstract

The work is a transforming element, not only for the man but also for the nature, a source not more as an inexhaustible resource, as well as a modifier mean of the relationship that has been established in the society. The expansion process of the work brought the opportunity and the guarantee to the employee by a series of laws and regulations and mainly by the rights against the employer. Although, some progress has been taken in this area, and another rights has been constantly included in this list, little or almost nothing has been done to ensure that the workers will be able and conscious from the effects of their work on the environment. Moreover, only few actions have been done in order to look for alternatives less aggressive, and to include the employee in the source and the development of new activities less harmful to the integrity of natural resources. First of all, to them, most of the times they don’t have greater power of the decisions on the administration of the organization, and second, because of the search for new alternatives request, initially, an amount of values that the corporations are not always willing to spend. All progress in the work of human beings requires a new adjustment against the environmental degradation: it is necessary an environmental education for that there is still time to preserve what remains of the nature.
