1、America's productivity growth has slowed.

2、But slower productivity growth could make matters worse.

3、So too do shifts in the sources of productivity growth.

4、Now he wants wage agreements linked directly to productivity growth.

5、America's productivity growth has slowed. Does that matter?

6、He suspects that their productivity growth long lagged behind.

7、The planner will move labor out of sectors where productivity growth exceeds demand growth and into sectors where demand growth exceeds productivity growth.

8、They also depend crucially on inflation growth differentials and productivity growth differentials.

9、Even slow growth should cut the stock of jobless if productivity growth is sluggish, as seems likely.

10、Although the service sector has grown since the late 1970's, its productivity growth has declined.

11、The issue of productivity growth differentials, to which I have already alluded, is less ambiguous.

12、Messrs Oliner, Sichel and Stiroh, for instance, reckon trend productivity growth is around 2.25%.

13、Unless productivity growth perks up, the rise in GDP per head will slow.

14、But the root cause of Italy's lost export competitiveness is its dismal productivity growth.

15、The GDP growth outlook was based on consensus projections of 1 percent average annual productivity growth and labor force growth of 1.3 percent or less.

16、We will then need just enough growth in private and public spending to offset productivity growth and keep job growth in line with the supply of new workers.

17、Fast productivity growth in export industries raises average wage costs across the economy, including in non-traded services where productivity is sluggish.

18、Greek productivity did climb, at an average annual rate of about 2% from 2000 to 2010. Greece showed the same productivity growth as Germany, but wages climbed faster.

19、The resulting fall in labour-productivity growth might cause alarm among some analysts, but TFP would remain strong.

20、This is largely due to a steady rise in unit Labour costs, as wage increases outstripped productivity growth (see chart).

21、Lower productivity growth that is not accompanied by slower wage increases implies rising unit Labour cost pressures.

22、The achievement of economic and financial stability in the past few years has in turn seen productivity growth rise.

23、Some analysts also worry that future productivity growth in emerging economies will be curbed by slower growth in world trade and capital flows.

24、FOR a decade or so, students of productivity growth have had even more to explain than usual.

25、Wage growth must at least keep pace with productivity growth; interest rates must rise substantially; and the currency must be revalued.

26、What solutions there are, though, are likely to involve a re-focusing on productivity performance after a period in which, at least at a national level, our productivity growth has been disappointing.

27、The green revolution of three decades ago helped keep the country from starvation, but since then productivity growth in Indian agriculture has hardly moved.

28、And since 2006 there has been "an upward blip" in productivity growth in the region as a whole, says Carmen pages, who co-ordinated the study.

29、The second quarter of 2010 brought an end to a run of five consecutive quarters of extraordinary productivity growth as firms generated more output with fewer workers.

30、This lack of training is one of the main reasons why Europe's productivity growth over the past two decades has persistently lagged behind America's.
