OECD Compendium of Productivity Indicators 2018
This report presents a comprehensive overview of recent and longer-term trends in productivity levels and growth in OECD countries, accession countries, key partners and some G20 countries. It includes measures of labour productivity, capital productivity and multifactor productivity, as well as indicators of international competitiveness.
Recent trends in productivity and employment
Global economic growth remains solid and broad-based (OECD, 2017b), even though the pace has eased in recent periods. But while the upturn is set to persist into 2018, it has been modest, partly reflecting continued relatively weak labour productivity growth in most countries (). In the OECD as a whole labour productivity in the post crisis period has grown at about half the rate of the pre-crisis period.
