Abstract

In the last decades, environment and its conservation have become a critical variable for the economic analysis and for the company, because it supposes important changes in the competitive environment which it forces them to reframe ist strategic position, specially in environment related sectors with a clear market direction like tourim. However, the analysis of this subject from the Management Science is still insufficiently developed and at the moment there is not sufficiently validated investigation models. In this context, in this paper a measurement scale of the "Environmental Management of the Company" is developed and valued whose in the scope of the hotel sector. Therefore, it constitutes an excellent empirical contribution to a developing investigation field.
