Avaliação do gerenciamento dos resíduos sólidos gerados no Supermercado Empório Pompéia, em Goiânia – GO

Abstract

The growing development of supermarket retailing in Brazil has led managers to seek to apply socio-environmental actions in their businesses, as a way of minimizing the environmental impact that trade provides to the environment and society. Therefore, the objective of the present work is to show the need to implement a management plan for solid waste generated in the supermarket, named Empório Pompeia located in Goiânia-GO. For this, the company was divided into four sectors and interviews were conducted with managers and employees regarding the internal management of the project's solid waste. Data on the classification, storage and final destination of the waste were collected and it was pointed out that, according to the environmental legislation in force, the supermarket under study has environmentally adequate management conditions, but it will be necessary to adopt some corrective measures for better functioning.
