Gestão de recursos humanos: treinamento e desenvolvimento no âmbito da introdução do sistema Galatée na Electricidade de Moçambique- Àrea Comercial de Maputo

Abstract

Electricidade de Moçambique (EDM) was created in 1977, through Decree-Law No. 38/77 of 27 August (see annex 4), two years after the country's independence, with the aim of establishing and operating a public service production, transport, distribution and commercialization of electricity. At the time of its creation, it was incorporated into a State-owned company and one of its tasks was to aggregate all production centers in a single body in order to improve the satisfaction of the needs in electricity for the development of the sectors of agriculture, industry, services , as well as for domestic consumption. In order to achieve the defined objectives and to face the shortage of qualified human resources, EDM saw the need to recruit qualified technicians inside and outside the country, to promote a series of professional training actions with external support, to carry out basic training actions location in the various production centers under the aegis of the Company's training services, and to mobilize external resources to meet the needs in technical means. The sixteen-year war that ravaged the country made it impossible to expand the electricity network nationwide, which was associated with the provision of low-cost electricity to the consumer, in pursuit of the fiscal and social policy defined for the sector by the political power then, which came to weaken the situation of the company more and more, insofar as such selling prices did not correspond to the real costs of production. It was in the context of the economic restructuring underway in the country that started in 1987, that EDM went from State to Public Company, endowed with legal personality and with administrative, financial and patrimonial autonomy, through Decree 28/95 of 17 July (see annex 5). From that time, EDM started to guide and develop its activity taking into account the improvement of services. (TRADUÇÃO NOSSA)
