A visão dos gestores do setor privado sobre o papel do arquivista e a gestão documental

Abstract

Starting from the hypothesis that vacancies in archive sectors in private institutions are filled by professionals with other backgrounds to the detriment of the professionals graduated in the modalities of Archivist. The objective of this study is to analyze the vision of private sector managers in the city of João Pessoa, in the state of Paraíba, about the role of the Archivist and his role in the actions aimed at document management. As a premise, the research addresses the managers' view of the Archivist. Exploratory research and a qualitative and quantitative approach have identified that Archivology professionals are not ahead of strategic decisions about documentation, since managers see it as a mere administrative position, as well as the vacancies in the archive sector of the private branch generally are filled by other professional categories to the detriment of training in archival science. Finally, we conclude that the Archivist needs to build significant spaces in the labor market of the private sector, where for this, a greater visibility of its competences is necessary to make it indispensable and indispensable.
