Este artigo tem por objetivo confrontar as principais características administrativas
mencionadas pela literatura com as observadas na prática ao longo da implantação de
programas de melhorias em 9 empresas de micro e pequeno porte do Núcleo de
Desenvolvimento Empresarial de Jundiaí (São Paulo). Ao longo de um ano, os autores deste
artigo observaram por um lado deficiências administrativas como a falta de planejamento
estratégico, a confusão entre a pessoa física do empresário e jurídica da empresa, a relação de
parentesco na atribuição de cargos, tarefas e, por outro, lado pontos positivos como a
flexibilidade, a comunicação efetiva, o contato mais próximo com o cliente, etc. Por meio da
implantação de programas de melhorias, as deficiências foram reduzidas e os pontos fortes
foram aperfeiçoados. O presente trabalho apresenta as características marcantes à maioria das
empresas no início desta implantação e contribui para a literatura do gênero.

AbstractIn the last decades, several indicators are showing the inadequacy of countries' economic models. Changes in these models are necessary to contemplate the concept of sustainable development. In this sense, the 17 Sustainable Development Goals were published by United Nations to guide companies, countries and people. Volunteer actions are important initiatives for this. This kind of initiative can be described as the act of helping someone, aiming to contribute to a fairer society in which charity and citizenship are present. The main objective of this study is to analyze the main aspects that influence Brazilian companies' employees to participate in volunteer programs and, to identify how these aspects may be grouped into factors. Initially, a bibliographic study was carried out to identify the main aspects that influence the participation of companies' employees in volunteer programs. With this information, a questionnaire was structured and used in a survey. Data analysis was performed via exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and five from seven aspects analyzed were validated. They are grouped into two factors named "personal aspects" and "institutional aspects". The first factor better explains the aspects mentioned. The results presented here may be useful for managers of volunteer programs and researchers interested in the theme.
