Productivity is an indicator for a country’s competitiveness. This paper analyzes the comparison competitivenesss of Indonesian workers relative to its competitiveness in several ASEAN countries. At the end of this paper, is expected to provide some policy recommendations that should be carried out by Indonesian Government to encourage an increasing of their labour competitiveness in ASEAN. This paper uses comparative analysis techniques. The secondary data was collected from the APO, ILO, UNDP, BPS.The result is, Brunai has the highest level of labour productivity even though it is decreasing. ASEAN has a trend of increasing the labour productivity during 1970-2016 period. Labour productivity in ASEAN tends to increase by almost 4 times from USD 6,2 thousand per worker in 1970 to USD 23,4 thousand per worker in 2016. During the 1970-2016, the labour productivity growth of ASEAN has continued to decline. During the 1970-2016, the labour productivity per hour in ASEAN increased from 2,8 percent in 1970 to 10,9 percent in 2016. The highest labour productivity growth per hour in ASEAN was achieved by Malaysia in 1990-1995 amounted to 6,5 percent, in contrast, the lowest of labour productivity per hour in ASEAN was achieved by Brunei Darussalam at 0,3 percent.

The Relationship

This paper examines the tendencies of Lithuanian services sector’s value added and labour productivity during 1995-2006. Comparative analysis of the average annual labour productivity growth in manufacturing and service industries reveals arguments supporting the W. Baumol’s consideration that there can be sporadic productivity increases in nonprogressive sectors. During 1995-2000, labour productivity growth in services exceeded productivity growth in manufacturing. The paper offers an interpretation of the Verdoom law for empirical regularities of the relationship between the cross-sectorial labour productivity growth rate and the value added growth rate.

Total Labour

This study considers the influence of structural change on aggregate labour productivity growth of the Russian economy. The term "structural change" refers to labour reallocation both between industries and between formal and informal segments within an industry. Using Russia KLEMS and official Rosstat data we decompose aggregate labour productivity growth into intra-industry (within) and between industry effects with four alternative methods of the shift-share analysis. All methods provide consistent results and demonstrate that total labour reallocation has been growth enhancing though the informality expansion has had a negative effect. As our study suggests, it is caused by growing variation in productivity levels across industries.

The Moment

The article gives an overview, performs analysis and classification of successful managerial practices applied at Russian industrial enterprises in the framework of the national project “Labour productivity and employment support”. The paper emphasizes the main factors of labour productivity growth as follows: investment policy, growth of human capital, and efficient use of managerial capital of enterprise. In order to determine the need of enterprises to increase labour productivity, the author proposes four universal criteria that signal the existing inefficiency even before the loss of competitiveness: 1) the dynamics of labour productivity in the company is not positive during a given period; 2) the company is behind competitors by labour productivity indicator; 3) the company is behind competitors by labour productivity growth rates indicator for a certain period; 4) unit production costs rise. These criteria allow you to take into account the situation both within the enterprise and in comparison with other enterprises. Each criteria can be considered separately or in combination with the others, applied to enterprises of different industries, specialization, and scale. Criteria indicate the direction of development in which the company is experiencing difficulties at the moment, or may experience them in the future.
