    www.ategrus.org 'The History of Private Sector Waste Disposal in the United Kingdom from the late 1970's to the mid 1990's' By Tim Byrne MCIWM Chartered Waste Manager. ISWA International Waste Manager Associate Member of ATEGRUS Commercial and Industrial Waste Collection and Mobile Compaction Vehicles The development of mobile compaction vehicles for the collection of commercial and industrial waste goes back to the 1970’s. In this period, the economy was buoyant and large quantities of waste needed collecting from industry and commerce. In this era, many smaller waste management companies existed and over the coming decades, they were aquired, by the national waste management Plc’s. In this era there were two national waste management companies in existence; Biffa, and Redland Purle. There were other regional waste management businesses such as Cleansing Service Group, Grundon, Hales Containers and Haul Waste as well www.ategrus.org as smaller waste management businesses such as Cartaways, Clugston Reclamation and Waste Plan in the West Midlands; Mix Concrete and Waste Disposal, had depots in Great Billing, Northampton its Head Office as well as in Coventry, Swindon and Bristol in the South East and the South West; Sam Hemmings with depots in Bristol, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire in the South, and Haul Waste which had depots across the South West e.g. Taunton, Bristol, Plymouth and Liskeard. Biffa and Commercial Waste Collection using Paladin and wheeled containers Biffa started using their first Paladin collection vehicles in the late 1970s when they purchased some Norba Hippo intermittent rear loaders with pencil bin hoist from Norba Ltd mounted onto Seddon Atkinson S34 4x2 chassis.

In their first year apprentices will earn £7,654 and exceptional candidates will have the chance to go to China and visit MG’s parent company, SAIC Motor, in their second year. SAIC is the eighth biggest car company in the world and sold more than 4 million cars last year. HR Manager, Louise Lane, said: “This is a really exciting opportunity for youngsters to join in what is the birth of the new MG.

  • The Stagflation Crisis and the European Automotive Industry, 1973-85
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Diposit Digital de la Universitat de Barcelona The stagflation crisis and the European automotive industry, 1973-85 Jordi Catalan (Universitat de Barcelona) The dissemination of Fordist techniques in Western Europe during the golden age of capitalism led to terrific rates of auto production growth and massive motorization. However, since the late 1960s this process showed signs of exhaustion because demand from the lowest segments began to stagnate. Moreover, during the seventies, the intensification of labour conflicts, the multiplication of oil prices and the strengthened competitiveness of Japanese rivals in the world market significantly squeezed profits of European car assemblers. Key companies from the main producer countries, such as British Leyland, FIAT, Renault and SEAT, recorded huge losses and were forced to restructure. The degree of success in coping with the stagflation crisis depended on two groups of factors. On the one hand, successful survival depended on strategies followed by the firms to promote economies of scale and scope, process and product innovation, related diversification, internationalization and, sometimes, changes of ownership. On the other hand, firms benefited from long-term path-dependent growth in their countries of origin’s industrial systems. Indeed, two of the main winners of the period, Toyota and Volkswagen, can rightly be seen as outstanding examples of Confucian and Rhine capitalism. Both types of coordinated capitalism contributed to the success of their main car assemblers during the stagflation slump. However, since then, global convergence with Anglo-Saxon capitalism may have eroded some of the institutional bases of their strength.
