Lifting the lid on project relieve administrative burden on demolition companies.
A Europe-wide research project is underway to analyse and hopefully alleviate some of the administrative burden placed upon demolition contractors by the European Union, national governments and a variety of other organisations and legislative bodies. DemolitionNews.com’s Mark Anthony met Martha Bird, one of the team behind the research and accompanied her on one of her many fact-finding missions.
In the pantheon of thankless tasks, the job facing EU Affairs consultant Martha Bird is right up there with that of the England football team manager and BP public relations officer. Employed by Danish management consultancy Ramboll, Bird has been handed the poison chalice of researching the administrative burdens facing a variety of industry sectors including demolition.
In this exclusive audio interview, Martha Bird explains the thinking behind the project, why she belies that smaller demolition companies are disproportionately hit with administrative burdens, and how she hopes that her initial work will ultimately benefit the industry in the coming years.
