Resumo
The pursuit of economic growth by nations and the unsustainable consumption patterns
characteristic of modern life have resulted in environmental problems that have become part of
the everyday scenario of contemporary societies. Given this, the pursuit of sustainable
development demands that the adoption of environmentally responsible attitudes is not
restricted to private initiative, but also to be contemplated by public agents and society in
general. Thus, this research aimed to understand how the adoption of environmental
management practices in the Mato Grosso State Department of Traffic (DETRAN / MT), using
the Neo Institutional Theory and the Structuration Theory as a perspective of analysis. This
study has a qualitative approach of applied nature, as the objectives are exploratory, in relation
to the procedures used - bibliographic, documentary and field. Data collection was performed
through government websites and documents provided directly by the municipality.
Semistructured interviews were also conducted with managers and public servers at the
headquarters of DETRAN / MT in Cuiabá, as well as in the Regional Circumscriptions of
Rondonópolis and Pedra Preta, totaling 16 people. The transcripts were analyzed using the
content analysis technique. From the analyzes performed in this research, it can be inferred that
although DETRAN / MT has environmental sustainability expressed in its institutional identity,
as well as formally adhering to the A3P program, which can be understood as a proposed
environmental management system for Public administration Environmental management, it is
not consistent in the organization. However, it seems that the process of adopting
environmentally sustainable practices has taken place through coercive institutional pressures,
as well as through a proactive positioning of employees in relation to the environment. Thus,
when analyzing environmental management based on the position evidenced by DETRAN /
MT regarding environmental sustainability, it can be considered that, in general, such
management occurs through a standard process that tends to build an institutional environment,
and structures, that ensure minimum standards of environmental responsibility in the
organization's behavior through behaviors responsive to third party demands.
