This dataset provides statistics on labour productivity, for large regions (TL2) and small regions (TL3).

Data source and definition

Labour productivity is measured as gross value added per employment at place of work by main economic activity. Regional gross value added and employment data are collected from Eurostat (reg_eco10) for EU countries and via delegates of the OECD Working Party on Territorial Indicators (WPTI), as well as from national statistical offices' websites. In order to allow comparability over time and across countries, labour productivity data in current prices are transformed into constant prices and PPP measures (link).

Definition of regions

Regions are subnational units below national boundaries. OECD countries have two regional levels: large regions (territorial level 2 or TL2) and small regions (territorial level 3 or TL3). The OECD regions are presented in the OECD Territorial grid (pdf) and in the OECD Territorial correspondence table (xlsx).

Use of economic data on small regions

When economic analyses are carried out at the TL3 level, it is advisable to aggregate data at the metropolitan region level when several TL3 regions are associated to the same metropolitan region. Metropolitan regions combine TL3 regions when 50% or more of the regional population live in a functionnal urban areas above 250 000 inhabitants. This approach corrects the distortions created by commuting, see the list of OECD metropolitan regions (xlsx) and the EU methodology (link).

Small regions (TL3) are categorized based on shared characteristics into regional typologies. See the economic indicators aggregated by territorial typology at country level on the access to City typology (link) and by urban-rural typology (link).

In 2022, India’s labor productivity growth rate was **** percent, a decline from the previous year. The growth rate of labor productivity has almost halved since 2011, having reached its peak in 2016. Labor productivity measures the hourly output of a country's economy, and its growth is based on human capital, saving, investing in physical capital, and the use of new technology. Do long work hours lead to better productivity? While many top executives in India have advocated working long hours, this has not positively correlated with labor productivity. According to economic theory, working long hours leads to diminishing returns. Long working hours also present an obstacle to upskilling, which is considered a low-pay trap for employees and the country. Reasons for low labor productivity in India Labor productivity, measuring the labor efficiency in producing goods and services, is an important indicator of economic growth, competitiveness, and living standards. Factors attributed to low productivity in India include deteriorating quality of labor rooted in the education system, skilling, and employability. A holistic approach addressing gaps in the education system, promoting technological advancements, and implementing comprehensive labor market reforms can enhance the country’s competitiveness and foster economic growth.

Gross domestic product (GDP) is a measure for the economic activity. It is defined as the value of all goods and services produced less the value of any goods or services used in their creation. GDP per person employed is intended to give an overall impression of the productivity of national economies expressed in relation to the European Union average. If the index of a country is higher than 100, this country's level of GDP per person employed is higher than the EU average and vice versa. Basic figures are expressed in PPS, i.e. a common currency that eliminates the differences in price levels between countries allowing meaningful volume comparisons of GDP between countries. Please note that 'persons employed' does not distinguish between full-time and part-time employment. Labour productivity per hour worked is calculated as real output per unit of labour input (measured by the total number of hours worked). Measuring labour productivity per hour worked provides a better picture of productivity developments in the economy than labour productivity per person employed, as it eliminates differences in the full time/part time composition of the workforce across countries and years.
