Agricultural production is one of the most labor-intensive in the world. In our country, at the same time with large labor costs, the agricultural sector is characterized by low wages. This state of affairs in the industry makes relevant research on the identification of factors of labor productivity growth. In addition, it is necessary to develop methods for creating high-performance jobs. The data of the Federal State Statistics Service and the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation formed the informational basis of this study. There were also used information officially distributed by the Ministry of Agriculture and Food of the Sverdlovsk region. The research is based on the results of the author's survey of managers and specialists of agricultural enterprises located in the Talitsky city district of the Sverdlovsk region. The study focuses on the study and analysis of the dynamics of the development of the agricultural sector in the region. In conclusion, the conclusions are formulated, and the main factors of labor productivity growth in agriculture of the Sverdlovsk region are identified. The results of the study showed that outdated technical equipment of production has a negative impact on the productivity of labor in the agricultural sector.

A labor potential is the driving force for the economic development of the enterprise. Therefore, the effectiveness evaluation of its using becomes to some extent an indicator of the increasing possibilities the volume and improving the quality of agri-food products, providing the enterprise with competitive advantages in the market. In such circumstances, the search for ways to achieve the highest end results with the lowest labor costs in the production processes become quite significant and a positive factor in the efficiency of the enterprise labor potential using and become particularly important in economic science. The relevance and importance of economic research have led to consider the theoretical aspects of understanding the definitions of "efficiency" and " effectiveness" of capacity utilization. The list of basic and additional indicators is formed used for different categories of personnel, which are the criteria for evaluating their work performance in the agro-industrial enterprise. A labor productivity is identified and analyzed as one of the important and universal indicators of the effectiveness of the enterprise labor potential using. The essence of productivity at the enterprise is generalized. The approaches are considered for taking into account living and materialized labor in determining labor productivity. It is noted that the criteria for assessing labor productivity are formed in agricultural production and industrial processing of agricultural raw materials in different ways. In order to calculate the indicator of the industrial-production personnel productivity of agro-industrial enterprises deduct the following expenses from the net proceeds from the sale: material, consumed energy and fixed assets (depreciation) and rent payments or rent of land development. For efficiency of enterprise labor potential using it is necessary for there to be an increase in labor productivity. Groups of factors influencing the growth of labor productivity in agro-industrial enterprises are given. The decisive role of wage factors in stimulating the efficiency of labor potential using and "usefulness of labor" is emphasized, which causes many economists to accept as the maximized amount of consumption volume, and more precisely the proceeds from the sale. The work focuses on current reserves of labor productivity growth. The calculations of labor productivity growth are offered. Keywords: labor potential, effectiveness, efficiency, labor productivity, factors, reserves, wages, usefulness of labor.

The paper considers necessary conditions for acceleration of labor productivity growth in Russia. Based on micro data, as well as aggregate data, the paper quantifies the contribution of small and medium firms to labor productivity growth. It shows that mere increase of the number of small and medium enterprises is not as important for positive effects of these programs, as qualitative improvements: development of favorable environment for growth, which is largely determined by business climate. Accelerating productivity growth involves redistribution of labor and capital from inefficient to efficient enterprises. In particular, it is necessary to create conditions, which allow a firm to grow after it enters the market instead of stagnating as a small firm with low efficiency. At the same time, it is necessary for ineffective firms, which exhausted their growth potential, to have an opportunity to exit the market easily leaving resources including labor to fast-growing companies.

We examine the contribution to labor productivity growth in the manufacturing sector of investment in different intangible asset categories—computerized information, innovative property, and economic competencies—for a set of 18 European countries between 1995 and 2017, as well as whether this contribution varies between different groups of countries. The motivation is to go a step further and identify which single or combination of intangible assets are relevant. The main findings can be summarized as follows. Firstly, all the three different categories of intangible assets contribute to labor productivity growth. In particular, intangible assets related to economic competences together with innovative property assets have been identified as the main drivers; specifically, advertising and marketing, organizational capital, research and development (R&D) investment, and design. Secondly, splitting the sample of European Union (EU) member states into three groups—northern, central and southern Europe—allows for the identification of a significant differentiated behavior between and within groups, in terms of the effects of investment in intangible assets on labor productivity growth. We conclude that measures promoting investment in intangibles at EU level should be accompanied by specific measures focusing on each country’s needs, for the purpose of promoting labor productivity growth. The obtained evidence suggests that the solution for the innovation deficit of some European economies consist not only of raising R&D expenditure, but also exploiting complementarities between different types of assets.

The article critically examines the positive and negative consequences of labor productivity growth at mining enterprises in the conditions of the old industrial region. It is suggested that for enterprises of the middle Urals it is necessary to form a mining production development strategy based on the directions of the regional strategy, which is not always connected with labor productivity growth by increasing mining volumes. The article is aimed at studying the factors affecting the prospects of mining enterprises activity from the standpoint of choosing strategic alternatives to their development. The methods of analysis: logical analysis, structural analysis, logical modeling, literature analysis. Using the logical modeling method, the following hypothesis was verified: that mining enterprises strategic development features in the conditions of an old industrial region should consider the strategy of municipalities in which these enterprises are located. For such mining enterprises, the increase in productivity through increased production is not unequivocally positive. It is concluded that in order to ensure the activities coherence of regions and enterprises, it is necessary to ensure balanced development, which can be achieved through the application of a managed strategy attenuation of the mining enterprise.

The modern strategy of economic development of Russia, which is aimed at restructuring the economy, requires, first of all, the search for new and improvement of existing ways of increasing labor productivity at any domestic enterprise. That is why the issues of creating effective motives and incentives for increasing labor productivity as an important tool for the development of an industrial enterprise are relevant.
