Economia Circular, Eletrônicos, Reportes de SustentabilidadeResumo
Objetivo: Neste artigo investigamos como as empresas multinacionais abordam questões de sustentabilidade em suas operações e em que medida adotam iniciativas sustentáveis relacionadas aos princípios da economia circular.
Método: Realizamos uma revisão sistemática das iniciativas de 43 empresas multinacionais, utilizando seus relatórios de sustentabilidade corporativa. Nossa amostra foi selecionada com base nos rankings das maiores multinacionais das indústrias de computadores e semicondutores em 2023, de acordo com as revistas Fortune e Forbes.
Principais Resultados: Considerando a significativa produção de insumos e bens, receita e geração de resíduos nessas indústrias, tínhamos a expectativa de que preocupações ligadas à sustentabilidade, como mudanças climáticas e redução da pegada de carbono, aparecessem em suas agendas. Nossa análise identificou as principais iniciativas alinhadas aos princípios da economia circular, como reutilização, redução e reciclagem de materiais, recursos e produtos, e comparou os padrões observados na amostra.
Relevância / Originalidade: Nossos resultados são relevantes para entender as estratégias das empresas multinacionais e como elas lidam com a pressão de melhorar o uso de recursos de forma eficiente, por meio da abordagem da economia circular.
Contribuições Teóricas / Metodológicas: Identificamos como as empresas multinacionais de uma mesma indústria abordam iniciativas de economia circular mediante uma análise detalhada de seus relatórios de sustentabilidade.
Contribuições Sociais / Gerenciais: Com base em iniciativas bem-sucedidas, propomos ações sustentáveis que outras empresas possam explorar.
