Questions and instructions

Literal question

In a typical week over the last year, what percentage of total senior management's time was spent on dealing with requirements imposed by government regulations? [By senior management I mean managers, directors, and officers above direct supervisors of production or sales workers. Some examples of government regulations are taxes, customs, labor regulations, licensing and registration, including dealings with officials and completing forms]

Interviewer instructions

Percent of total senior management's time. The question asks senior managers to estimate what percentage of their time they spend dealing with government regulations, inspections, negotiations and other bureaucratic burden in a TYPICAL week. It should not include time spent negotiating procurement contracts with the government - only time dealing with red tape and bureaucracy.
