The OECD Productivity Database: An Overview

Dirk Pilat and Paul Schreyer ()

International Productivity Monitor, 2004, vol. 8, 59-65

Abstract: Dirk Pilat and Paul Schreyer of the OECD discuss the new OECD Productivity Database. The database covers 26 OECD countries for labour productivity estimates, as well as 14 countries for multifactor productivity estimates. While the database represents the most comparable productivity estimates that are currently available for cross-OECD comparisons, the authors also describe current work planned by the OECD that will improve comparability further.
