Implementação de um programa de sustentabilidade ambiental em uma empresa de construção civil em Goiânia-GO

Abstract

The construction industry plays a crucial role in the development of societies and sustainability is a growing challenge. The concern with the environmental, social and economic impacts of the sector's activities has driven the search for increasingly sustainable practices. In this context, the monitoring of environmental criteria and indicators on the construction site is a strategy to improve environmental performance on the construction site. The general objective of this work is to implement an environmental sustainability program at the construction site of a construction company in the municipality of Goiânia-GO. To this end, a literature review was carried out, covering scientific studies, technical reports and practical experiences in the implementation of environmental indicators in civil construction. The research also included the definition of environmental criteria and indicators, with goals to be met in order to bring changes in the production process of the work in question, where it was possible to monitor the productive advances and the results that the work obtained over the monitored period. The results show that the implementation of the environmental sustainability program in civil construction can bring a series of benefits to the production process. The application of environmental criteria and indicators allowed a greater understanding of environmental impacts, enabling the identification of critical points and the proposition of effective solutions. In addition, the criteria and indicators helped in making more informed decisions, reducing waste, and improving the efficiency of the resources of the construction site in question. The use of these criteria and indicators not only contributed to mitigate negative impacts, but also to promote social responsibility and environmental education of employees.
