Abstract:

This paper investigates the determinants of labor productivity growth at the firm level in the Greek manufacturing sector. The analysis is based on descriptive statistics and regression models on a longitudinal sample of 3035 firms. The results show that labor productivity growth is positively related to growth of net fixed assets per employee, export orientation and R&D activity. Firm size, employment growth and industry age affect negatively labor productivity growth.
