protecção ambiental, empresarial, modelo de investigação, desempenhoResumo
O trabalho atual visa desenvolver um instrumento para medir o impacto das empresas’ atividades de proteção ambiental- mental em seu desempenho econômico. Este instrumento destina-se especificamente ao sector do turismo, que raramente é analisado nesta perspectiva, apesar da sua considerável relevância devido à sua forte interacção com o ambiente. O trabalho testa empiricamente o modelo em uma amostra de hotéis nas Ilhas Canárias (Espanha). Utiliza a modelagem de equações estruturais para analisar a informação. Os resultados mostram que o modelo proposto se encaixa bem na realidade subjacente, e seus componentes constituintes satisfazem critérios de validade e confiabilidade. Deste modo, contribuem significativamente para o conhecimento dos determinantes e implicações da sustentabilidade nas empresas do sector do turismo.Downloads
