Abstract

The present dissertation has the focus on the following organizational aspects: the innovation, the professional trainning and the social responsibility (social actions) of rice enterprises between the years 1990 and 2004. Eleven rice enterprises were researched in the first semester of 2005, in other words, the totality of existent companies in the municipal districts that integrate the researched area, as well as hundred and seventy five employees, were part of a sample. The results indicate that the innovation, as well as the professional trainning and the social responsibility are not priorities for these companies. In other words, there is a tendency among rice enterprises of this area to not follow necessary transformations to be competitive and to stay in the market. One positive aspect is that the majority of administrators said there is interest to keep their employees studying. That is motivated through payments of school fees and donations for the employers. From the data collected among the employes, we can infer that there’isnt a syntony between the administrators and their subordinates evaluation. We can conclude that, in a general way, there is little tendency, among rice enterprises, to change through modern investments, as well as to qualify their employer and to develop the social responsibility (social actions). And this can explanation to the negative economical and social growth of the studied area.
