For these approaches start to be used as environmental strategies, it is necessary to demonstrate the influence of these approaches on business competitiveness. This study aims to assess the quantitative impact of environmental strategies in the competitiveness of a petrochemical company. From that measurement, it is possible to demonstrate the effective contribution of environmental strategies for competitiveness, encouraging the use of these strategies and disseminating the sustainability paradigm. This paper is a case study with both quantitative and qualitative approaches, and was developed through a questionnaire applied to the decision makers of the company. Statistical analysis of collected data allowed the identification of the environmental strategy that most influences the competitiveness of the company. The study also revealed the most important strategies for each of the competitive factors: supply, financial, marketing, and internal processes. This work enabled the real measurement of the influence of environmental strategies in the competitiveness of an organization, classifying these environmental strategies and providing concrete data for the use of these strategies in the company's decision-making.Acesso AbertoCompetitividadeEstratégias ambientaisMediçãoIndicadoresSetor petroquímicomasterThesisCNPQ::ENGENHARIAS::ENGENHARIA DE PRODUCAO
