Productivity growth shapes economic development and underpins improvements in living standards. Its pace and pattern differ markedly across countries and over time, reflecting the interplay of a wide range of factors – structural and cyclical, international and domestic. Internationally comparable indicators of productivity are central for assessing cross-country variation in productivity trends and gauging economic performance.
The OECD Dashboard of productivity indicators provides a visual way to explore key productivity measures, including labour productivity and multifactor productivity, and their components. It presents data across OECD countries and, where available, accession countries, enabling users to track changes over time. The underlying data are sourced from the OECD Productivity Database.
