Selected re fere n ces.................................................................................... 72 6 6 7 v Introduction For many years the Bureau of Labor Statistics has provided comparative measures of labor statistics for the United States and other industrialized countries to shed light on U.S. economic performance relative to these countries. The principal mea sures developed cover productivity, hourly compensation, and unit labor costs, as well as labor force, employment, and unemployment. With regard to productivity, comparative trends in output per hour in the manu facturing sector are compiled and published annually for the United States and 11 other industrialized countries. These are time series generally starting with 1950 and expressed in index form (1967=100). Because of its principal interest in labor costs and the greater availability of current labor input data, the Bureau has directed its attention to measures of output per unit of labor input, i.e., labor productivity measures. In addition, the Bureau prepares corresponding hourly compensation and unit labor cost indexes to indicate the relationship between productivity movements and cost movements in the various countries. The all-manufacturing measures are limited to trend comparisons, i.e., inter country series of productivity and cost changes over time, rather than level compari sons, because of the difficulties involved in developing an adequate and comprehen sive set of intercountry measures of absolute levels of productivity and because of the need to have current information on changes in relative performance of the countries. The requirements for developing a suitable set of level comparisons gen erally preclude the possibility of deriving current measures. In comparing productivity levels, the data needs are rigorous, because any incon sistency is likely to be reflected fully in the relative level measure. Therefore, it is extremely important that data on output and input within each country be carefully matched and that coverage and definitions be closely aligned between countries. In addition, when making bilateral comparisons, it is desirable to use weighting systems from both countries wherever possible. In comparing trend measures, some data inconsistencies can be tolerated because their effects are not likely to alter the comparative trends appreciably. This is so especially where a consistent error is carried within a series over a period of years. 1 Concepts and Methods Another indication is that, in the eight countries that have more than one production series, the differences between series are often substantial. Employment customarily means wage and salary employment, excluding the sellemployed and unpaid family workers. However, a preferable concept would cover all persons engaged in manufacturing. For the United States and Canada, the labor input measure pertains to all persons. For Switzerland, the data cover wage earners only, and for the other countries, the data apply to employees only, because of a dearth of information about other employed persons. Also, the employment data for one country (Germany) do not cover persons in establishments of less than 10 workers. Total hours data represent “hours worked” for most of the countries but “hours paid” for the United States and Switzerland. The preferred measure is hours worked, rather than hours paid for. Hours worked are also described as hours at work or plant hours. The Bureau has explored the problems of developing a series on hours worked in the United States, but it may be a long time before such a change can be made. Estimates of total hours generally must be made without information on the number of hours worked by salaried employees. The concept of compensation presents difficulties that involve both the source of payment and the purpose of payment. The Bureau’s general view is that compensa tion (labor cost) should cover all employer expenditures that are ordinarily allocated to labor. Included would be direct pay in cash or in kind, before any deductions, and all payments into funds for the benefit of employees. Because of measurement difficulties, certain costs of hiring and retaining an effective work force, such as recruitment and training costs, subsidies for lunchrooms and similar plant facilities, and plant medical and welfare services, are not included. On ther other hand, certain payroll-related taxes that are not of direct benefit to employees have been included. Examples are the 5-percent payroll tax that applied in France until December 1968 and the British Selective Employment Tax (SET) that was introduced in 1966 and discontinued several years later. Employee benefits that are not derived directly from employers or from employer-financed funds are not included as compensation. An example is the value of benefits received from the British National Health System, which is financed out of general public revenues. Data on total compensation are available from national accounts for nine of the countries studied. For France, Belgium, and Switzerland, estimates are constructed from data on average earnings, average compensation, employment, and average hours. The BLS indexes of manufacturing output per hour, hourly compensation, and unit labor costs in 12 countries are derived from available country sources of data. Comparisons are necessarily limited because statistical concepts and methods in each country are fashioned to meet domestic needs rather than international needs. In some cases, a country’s data can be adjusted, if necessary, to achieve greater consis tency with other countries’ series. More often, however, it is only possible to point out the main inconsistencies. Inconsistencies can arise from differing definitions or concepts, and from differing methods of compiling data among countries. For in stance, it cannot be taken for granted that each country means precisely the same thing when using such common terms as manufacturing, or production, or employee, or hours, or compensation. Denmark, for example, excludes handicraft work from its manufacturing classification. Other countries have regarded certain repair work, such as auto repair or shoe repair, as manufacturing production. In deriving these measures the Bureau has confronted many of the conceptual problems and data limitations that are inherent in international comparisons, and it has developed some accommodations that satisfy practical needs, at least, if not all theoretical conditions. The output component of the measures refers to constant value gross product originating or value added in all countries.1 The data are from the national accounts for all countries except Japan and Switzerland. The methods used to compile the real output measures, however, differ considerably among the 12 countries. The United States, Belgium, Germany, Italy, and Sweden measure the trend in real output by using some variant of a deflated value measure, involving deflation of both material input values and output values by appropriate price indexes. In the other countries, the estimation procedure involves some form of extrapolation of base-year value added, using deflated values, quantity indicators, or a mixture of the two. Canada and France extrapolate both inputs and outputs, and the remaining countries generally use gross output indicators only. In addition, the weighting struc ture, the frequency of revision, the use of proxy measures, and the method of linking with earlier series vary considerably. An indication of the problems with present measures of manufacturing output can be found in the magnitude of revi sions that have been made from time to time in several countries, including the United States. 1 A description of the measures for each country is presented in appendix A to this report. 2 What the Data Show As indicated earlier, the Bureau’s series for most of the countries begin with the year 1950. However, principal attention has been given to the period from 1960 to the present. The decade of the 1950’s was an important period of reconstruction and growth, but it was a period of transition in several respects. For many of the coun tries, the post-World War II phase of restoration and rebuilding of capital facilities lasted well into the 1950’s, the worldwide dollar shortage tended to dominate inter national economic decisions, and many restrictions on the movement of goods and supplies were still in effect. Consequently, the productivity and cost experience of the period is no longer very pertinent to current international conditions. Also, the data systems for all of the countries were less refined than they have become, so that measures of productivity and labor costs during the 1950’s may be less reliable than recent measures. past 15 years are summarized in table 1. Supporting details are shown in appendix tables B-l through B-17. Within the period, there were marked changes in the relative productivity growth rates both within and among the countries. During the first 5 years—from 1960 to 1965—although most countries showed productivity increases averaging from 4 to 7 percent per year, the United States had a substantially higher rate than it did for the entire period and was much more in line with the rates for most of the other countries (table 2). Japan led in productivity growth during the early years as it did throughout the entire period, but the difference between its rate and that of other countries during the first 5 years was not as great as it was to become. On the other hand, Switzerland Productivity Table 1. Output per hour, output, and hours in manufacturing: Average annual rates of change, 12 countries, 1960-75 Looking at the results over the past 15 years, output per hour in manufacturing has risen at an annual rate between 4 percent and 7 percent for most countries. The conspicuous exceptions are the United States, which shows an average rise of less than 3 percent per year, and Japan, where the average rate has been over 9 percent per year. Within Europe, the smaller nations have shown a much better performance than the larger countries. The European countries included here showing the most vigorous gains since 1960 have been Denmark, Netherlands, Belgium, and Sweden. Similarly, in North America, the smaller economy, Canada, has shown the higher rate of productivity gain. The productivity gains in each of the countries reflected different output and input movements. In North America and Japan, manufacturing output rose more than productivity so that the productivity gains were associated with labor input increases. In most European countries, however, the pattern was reversed; average productivity gain over the entire period 1960-75 exceeded output growth, reflecting a general decline in total hours. The exceptions were France and Italy, where average output gains slightly exceeded productivity gains. The relationship between trends in productivity, output, and hours is shown graphically in chart 1.

During 1965-70 some pronounced changes took place. Japan’s rate of increase rose to the remarkable level of 13.4 percent per year, and four other countries showed gains of over 7 percent per year. In the United States, however, the average fell to 1.4 percent per year. Altogether, 8 of the 12 countries equalled or exceeded their rates of gain in the previous period. In the most recent 5-year period, 1970-75, the situation reversed itself to a great extent. All but two of the countries showed a slower rate of gain in productivity than in the previous 5 years. Most noteworthy was the change for Japan, which dropped from a 13.4-percent to a 5.4-percent rate of gain, still a very substantial rate of productivity improvement. Only the United States and Italy were able to improve upon their 1965-70 performance, but the United States continued to show the slowest rate (1.8 percent) among all the countries. It is difficult to ascertain the sources of the differences in productivity growth among the countries, particularly at the manufacturing level. It is also difficult to separate the short-term cyclical effects on productivity change from the longer term factors. BLS has not attempted to do this. It would appear, however, that the decelerations which occurred in most countries in recent years were strongly influ enced by the greater severity of the recent recessions. The years between 1960 and 1970 were remarkably free of serious industrial recession, judging from trends in manufacturing output. In most countries there was a mild slowdown in growth during 1966-67 and a sharper slowdown during 1970-71, but few countries showed actual output declines during either period. It was not until the recent widespread Labor costs Productivity movements can be viewed in conjunction with changes in hourly compensation in order to understand the implications for unit labor cost changes among countries. The average rate of gain in employee compensation in manufacturing has acceler ated in almost all countries since the early 1960’s (table 3). In the latter half of the 1960’s, 7 of the 12 countries showed a higher rate of gain in hourly compensation. During 1970-75, the rate of gain accelerated in all countries without exception. However, the countries that showed the lowest annual gain in compensation since 1960 were also those that showed the least productivity gain (United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and Switzerland). Japan showed the highest rate of increase in average compensation and also in productivity. In brief, the rate of change in compensation has accelerated since the 1960’s while the rate of productivity gain has slowed down. Consequently, unit labor costs have surged in recent years in close association with price increases. The decade of the 1960’s was a period of relative cost stability, with manufactur ing unit labor costs rising at annual rates ranging from 1.5 percent to 4 percent among the countries. An important shift occurred during the decade, however. The United States showed an average annual decline in costs of 1 percent during 1960-65, Table 3.

During 1965-70, the situation reversed as U.S. unit labor costs rose at a 4.6-percent annual rate while the rate was below 4 percent for all other countries. Then, in 1970-75, unit labor costs rose explosively. The average annual increase in 1970-75 was higher than in 1965-70 for all 12 countries, ranging from 6 percent for the United States up to about 15 percent for Japan and Italy. For international comparisons, currency revaluation is an additional factor that influences the trend in unit labor costs. When trends in national units are converted to a U.S. dollar basis, the measures of increase in unit labor costs are more pro nounced, especially in recent years (table 5). During the 1970-75 period, the ex change value of the U.S. dollar declined in relation to the currencies of nine of the other countries. Consequently, unit labor costs in those nine countries rose more sharply in U.S. dollar terms than in national currency terms. Only in Italy and the United Kingdom, where severe devaluations occurred in recent years, did unit labor costs on a dollar basis rise somewhat less than on a national currency basis. Where there is relative stability in growth of hourly compensation, changes in unit labor costs display a close inverse relation to changes in output per hour. When changes in these two rates are charted, they tend to show a mirror image of each other. (See chart 2.) This is particularly true of the United States, Sweden, and, until recently, Canada. Where the changes in hourly compensation are more volatile or erratic, as in Italy, the inverse relationship between productivity and unit labor costs is less pronounced. Hourly compensation and unit labor costs show very similar movements in several countries, notably Denmark, Germany, Italy, and the United Kingdom. These relationships illustrate the key role of productivity in holding down Effects of shifts within countries It is well known that labor productivity indexes based on real gross product and unweighted employee hours reflect the effects of shifts among industries with differ ent net output per hour as well as movements in output per unit of labor input within component industries. In these measures, shifts in industry shares of output and input can affect productivity for manufacturing as a whole even in the absence of productivity growth in the component industries. For some purposes an overall productivity index should reflect shifts over time in the importance of industries in addition to productivity changes within industries. For other purposes it should not. In any event, it is useful to explore how much of the total productivity change was a result of the contribution of each of these components; that is, to disaggregate the total change into the portion resulting from component industry productivity changes, the portion resulting from shifts in the mix, and the portion resulting from the interaction between productivity changes and changes in the mix. Since productivity is the ratio of output to input, the relative importance of the industries can be defined in terms of either the numerator or the denominator. Consequently, the total productivity change can be partitioned into the contribution from shifts in the shares of industry output, industry productivity change, and Table 5.

In order to obtain the desired detail, it was necessary to use some data sources other than those used for the all-manufacturing measures. The individual industry mea sures, therefore, and the resultant all-manufacturing totals should be considered as preliminary estimates compiled primarily for purposes of analyzing the effect of shifts in output or hours. For the United States, unpublished output data for the U.S. two-digit Standard Industrial Classification industry groups were available from the national accounts. These output figures are entirely consistent with the published all-manufacturing measure. The labor input figures by industry differ slightly, however, because they exclude the hours of self-employed persons. Data that match the published all-manu facturing measures were not available for the other three countries. For Germany, the necessary output figures were not available in sufficient detail from the national accounts so industrial production indexes were used. For the United Kingdom and Japan, it was necessary to substitute alternative measures of labor input.3 Conse quently, the all-manufacturing productivity indexes constructed from data for the Table 6.

How ever, while there are some significant year-to-year differences in productivity move ments, the constructed and published measures for each country show very similar rates of productivity change over the 1960-74 period (1960 to 1972 for Japan). Results of the shift analysis based on the constructed measures, therefore, probably also apply in general to the published all-manufacturing measures. It would have been desirable to have separate industry data in as fine detail as 2 The following formula was used to estimate the separate effects of shifts in the share of possible and at the same time roughly comparable among the countries.

This is because a constant set of weights was used to combine the individual manufacturing industries over the entire period for each country whereas the published all-manu facturing production indexes for both countries include shifts in the weights. 4For the United States, all manufacturing was divided into 20 industry groups; for the United Kingdom, 17 groups; for Germany, 33 groups; and for Japan, 17 groups. For industry-by-indus try comparisons, data for all four countries were combined into 15 industry groups. ASt denotes St — St j 14 in which shifts in hours had any appreciable impact were usually recession years. In Germany, for example, the greatest effect was in 1974, where the contribution of shifts in hours was 0.7 percentage points to the total productivity change of 3.8 percent. In the United States, large effects also took place in 1974 (with 0.3 per centage points and a total change of —3.9 percent) and in 1961 (w ith—0.3 percent age points and a total change of 2.4 percent). Both were recession years in the United States but the effects were in the opposite direction. The United Kingdom had a very substantial shift effect in 1 y e a r-1961—with 0.15 percentage points and a total change of -0 .2 2 percent. In Japan, the effect of shifts in hours has been rather slight in relation to overall productivity gains. The greatest shift effect in Japan was 0.38 percent in 1968, when the total productivity change was 12 percent. For the period as a whole, however, in each country the productivity growth within industries was virtually the entire source of the overall productivity change. For the most part this was because in each country industries maintained almost the same proportions of total manufacturing hours over the entire period. In Germany, for example, with the exception of textile mill products, no industry’s share of total manufacturing hours changed by more than 2 percentage points, and even textiles changed by only 3 percentage points. The industry group productivity changes, however, reflect the effects of shifts among the industries comprising the group. We were not able to extend the analysis for any of the countries except the United States, where we had available unpub lished measures for 400 manufacturing industries on a gross output basis. The total shift effect based on this additional detail was increased but not appreciably. With regard to the effects of output shifts on manufacturing productivity, for the period 1960-74 the results for the United States show a slight negative effect, amounting to —0.16 percent per year. For the United Kingdom, the effect of output shifts was negligible for the period. For Germany and Japan, however, the effects were substantial, amounting to 0.45 percent for Germany and 0.82 percent for Japan (1960-72). Trends by manufacturing industry As mentioned earlier, the productivity growth rates for manufacturing in the four countries are almost entirely a reflection of the productivity movements of the component industries. Table 7 summarizes these movements for the 1960-74 period for the 15 industry groups included; appendix tables B-22 through B-45 show annual data. The results for the period show a low variance among rates of productivity change for individual industries in three of the countries. In other words, the industry rates cluster closely around the mean for all manufacturing. For the United States, the average annual increase for all manufacturing was 2.7 percent, and 14 of the 15 industries showed gains within 2 percentage points of that average, i.e., between 0.7 Table 7.

Furthermore, 10 of the 15 industries were within 1 percent age point of the average. For the United Kingdom, the average was 4.1 percent, and 11 of the 15 industries showed gains within 2 points of that average. Similarly, for Germany, the all-manufacturing average gain was 5.8 percent, and 12 of the 15 industries gained within 2 points of that average. For Japan, the outcome is noticeably different. Japan has six major industries that have been expanding rapidly since 1960—chemicals, petroleum refining, primary metals, machinery, electrical equipment, and transportation equipment. These indus tries, combined, accounted for 43 percent of Japan’s manufacturing output in 1960, rising to 60 percent of output by 1972. They each achieved productivity gains of over 12 percent per year, compared to a 9.8-percent average gain for all manufactur ing. Most of the remaining industries had productivity gains well below 9 percent per year and accounted for a diminishing share of Japanese manufacturing output. Thus the pattern of Japanese productivity improvement does not resemble the cluster pattern found in the other three countries. The structure of Japan’s manufacturing output and productivity has undergone profound changes since 1960. In general, in none of the countries can the overall rate of gain be attributed in large measure to an outstanding performance by just one or two industries.5 Nor can a relatively low overall rate, such as in the United States, be attributed to a laggard performance by one or two industries. Although the variance in industry growth rates is low within most of the coun tries, there appears to be a similarity in the rankings of industry growth rates among countries. For example, chemicals, petroleum, and electrical manufacturing were among the six industries with the largest productivity gains in each country (table 8). On the other hand, primary metals, fabricated metals, machinery, food and tobacco, and paper and printing were among the industries with the smallest rates of gain in all or most cases. With very few exceptions, Japan shows the highest productivity gains in each industry, followed by Germany, then the United Kingdom, and finally the United States. Thus, the ranking of countries by productivity increase in all manufac turing holds true as well for individual industry groups. Table 8.

More recently, E. C.West has conducted comparisons between U.S. and Canadian manufacturing and K. Yukizawa has conducted Japan-United States comparisons, also for manufacturing. West’s study is based upon a comparison of output and employment in Canada and the United States during 1963. West calculated net output by double deflation for a sample of 30 three-digit manufacturing industries as reported in the Census of Manufactures for each country. In order to estimate relative levels for all manufactur ing, he adjusted the Canadian employment data to account for head office employ ment and he added an adjustment to account for the nonsample industries. His results showed that Canadian output per manufacturing employee was 64.4 percent of the U.S. level, using Canadian price weights, or 68.5 percent using U.S. price weights. In order to estimate relative levels for more recent years, BLS has made an adjustment to the West estimates to account for a slight difference in average hours worked between the two countries. Then the Canada-to-United States ratios were calculated for other years by using the BLS indexes of manufacturing output per hour for the two countries. The results for 1975, for example, show the ratio of Canadian to U.S. output per hour to be 76 percent, using Canadian weights, and 81 percent, using U.S. weights. The BLS results, presented in table 9, correspons closely with similar estimates made by Professor D. J. Daly of York University, Downsview, Ontario. Comparative productivity levels A number of efforts have been made over the past 30 years to compare levels of output or productivity between major countries. Some have been highly aggregative in coverage, such as the studies undertaken for the Organization for European Eco nomic Co-operation (OEEC) by Milton Gilbert and Irving Kravis during the 1950’s. (See appendix C for these and other studies discussed below.) Other studies have been bilateral in nature. Bilateral comparisons. An early bilateral comparison, covering U.S. and U.K. outputs, was conducted by Deborah Paige and Gottfried Bombach for the OEEC. The Eco- 5 The German chemical industry may offer an exception. This major industry has expanded rapidly since 1960 and has shown an average productivity increase o f 9.2 percent per year, compared to an all-manufacturing increase o f 5.8 percent per year. It has been calculated that, excluding the chemical industry, the rate o f increase for all German manufacturing would have been just 5.2 percent, so the influence o f the chemical industry was to raise the all-manufacturing rate by 0.6 percent. 25 Industry 16 Table 9. 1960-75 figures therefore are not necessarily representative of all manufacturing industries and appear to cover a higher proportion of relatively efficient industries in Japan than in the United States. BLS has adjusted Yukizawa’s ratios to account for the difference in average hours worked between the two countries and has calculated the ratios for other years on the basis of its trend series on output per hour. These estimates for 1975 show a Japan-to-United States ratio of 65 percent, using Japanese price weights, and 76 percent using U.S. price weights, (table 10).

The BLS has undertaken some comparisons of productivity levels with the concentration on selected manufacturing industries. The principal effort has been to compare levels of productivity and labor costs in the iron and steel industry of five countries. The steel industry was selected for the first absolute measurement project because it ranks high among basic industries in terms of size, public interest, and availability and comparability of data. The initial report on iron and steel was issued in 1968, and indexes have been used to keep the comparisons up to date since that time. Just recently the Bureau has introduced more current weights and made other revisions in the data; the preliminary findings are presented here for the first time. The BLS studies involve one serious technical problem—the weights—and numer ous problems that arise from insufficient data or unmatched data. The weights in use until very recently were 1961 unit labor requirements for the industry in the United States, applied to the United States and each of the other countries. These are the same weights that have been used by the ECE in its steel productivity project. The Bureau has recently introduced later U.S. weights, for the year 1967, which were obtained mainly for the domestic measure of steel productivity. The shift from 1961 to 1967 weights did not have an appreciable effect on the international comparisons of productivity levels. The results are about the same, using either set of weights. Nevertheless, the U.S. weights may be inadequate for use in international compari sons. One reason for being cautious about the use of U.S. weights is that there has been a major expansion of the industry in most countries since 1967, accompanied by widespread introduction of steelmaking innovations that might alter unit labor re quirements for certain products. A second reason is that the Bureau has weights from no other country to permit balanced international comparisons. The absence of complete matching data on steel output and labor input for each country obliges the analyst to make a series of assumptions and extrapolations in order to bridge the data gaps. A few examples will illustrate the nature of the problem. The European data on pipe and tubing are reported in two categories, welded and seamless. The U.S. data system, on the other hand, covers seven cate gories of pipe and tubing, some with sharply different labor requirement weights. The European data on stainless steel give an overall tonnage figure but no product 1 Ratio of Canadian to U.S. net ou tp u t per em ployee in total manufacturing, as estimated by C.

E. A somewhat similar bilateral comparison has been prepared by Professor Kenzo Yukizawa, covering productivity in Japanese and U.S. manufacturing. Yukizawa compared U.S. gross output per employee with Japanese gross output per employee for three time periods, 1958-59, 1963, and 1967, based mainly on physical quantity measures of output for a sampling of matched products. Yukizawa’s results for 1967 show Japanese manufacturing output per employee to be 49 percent of the U.S. level, using Japanese price weights, and 58 percent using U.S. price weights. Daly points out that the results may show a higher Japan-to-United States ratio than would be shown if net output data were used. In addition, the comparisons are based on only 60 industries at approximately the 4-digit U.S. level of classification. The industry coverage in 1967 accounted for only 25 percent of U.S. gross value added and 32 percent of Japanese net value added in manufacturing, and for 21 percent of U.S. employment and 24 percent of Japanese employment in manufacturing. The 17 Table 10. 1958-75 detail; alloy and stainless tonnage are combined in the product listings. Yet the U.S. weights are vastly different between products of alloy and products of stainless steel. In Japan, there is substantial employment of contract labor in steelmaking activities, and the use of contract labor is said to vary from period to period. The Bureau has not been able to obtain adequate data on how many contract workers are employed or the number of hours or rates of pay for these workers. In each case it is obliged to estimate the output or inputs on the basis of inadequate information. The initial results therefore contain a degree of uncertainty or variance that reaches beyond any normal amount of statistical discrepancy. The method of dealing with these uncertainties has been to present the results as ranges rather than single best estimates. The Bureau feels reasonably confident that a particular measure of productivity or labor cost falls within the given range, but it does not have the precise measure. In brief, as indicated in table 11, the findings show some sharp contrasts among the five major countries studied. Preliminary estimates for 1975 show that produc tivity in the Japanese steel industry is above the U.S. level, ranging between 111 and 132 percent of the United States. The German industry reached a level between 81 and 90 percent of the United States. The French productivity level was about onehalf, and the British was less than one-half, the U.S. level. It should be noted that 1975 was a recession year for the steel industry in all of the countries. Steel output dropped sharply in every country, but most acutely in France (table 12). Productivity showed virtually no change in Japan, but dropped 10 to 11 percent in the United States and Germany, 14 percent in the United Kingdom, and 28 percent in France. Estimates of grotvth in steel productivity illustrate very clearly the changes that have occurred since 1964. In the 10 years from 1964 to 1974, productivity in the steel industry increased at a rate of 3 percent per year in the United States, 2 percent per year in the United Kingdom, 5.6 percent per year in France, and 7 percent per year in Germany. The rate for Japan was 11 percent per year. In order to develop better measures, however, a broader effort seems called for than BLS alone can offer. It is important to obtain weights from the other countries besides the United States. The ECE project of several years ago attempted to do this but was not successful. Also, improved matching of products could be achieved. To do this, however, closer collaboration on a bilateral basis among country statisticians is called for. Or a stronger coordinating effort by international organizations could be undertaken and perhaps would be more successful now because of the greater inter est in productivity within nations.

N O T E : W ith the exception of a fe w items, the indexes fo r 1 9 6 4 and 1972 are based on the U.S. definition of the iron and steel industry. For 20 Appendix A. Sources and Methods The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) compiles and publishes indexes of output per hour, hourly compensation, and unit labor costs in manufacturing for the United States .and 11 other industrial countries. The indexes are constructed from three aggregate measures—manufacturing output, total hours, and total compensation. For most countries, the measures refer to total manufacturing as defined by the Inter national Standard Industrial Classification, but some countries depart from these definitions to one degree or another. The output measures refer to constant value gross product originating or value added in all countries. The methods used to compile the real output measures, however, differ considerably among the 12 countries. In the United States, Belgium, Germany, Italy, and Sweden, the estimation procedure is wholly or primarily that of double deflation, that is, adjustment of both gross outputs and inputs to eliminate price change. In the other countries, the estimation procedure involves some form of extrapolation of base-year value added, using either quantity indicators or deflated values. Canada and France extrapolate both inputs and outputs while the other countries generally use gross output indicators. The hours and compensation measures refer to all persons engaged in the United States and Canada, wage workers only in Switzerland, and to all employees in the other countries except Germany. For Germany, the compensation data refer to all employees including workers in the handicraft industries while the hours data ex clude handicraft workers but include the self-employed. Hours refer to paid hours in the United States and Switzerland, hours worked for the other countries. Compensa tion includes all wages and salaries paid directly to employees plus employer expendi tures for social insurance programs, and—for France, Sweden, and the United King dom-employment or payroll taxes that are not compensation to employees but are a labor cost to employers. The definitions and data sources for the output, hours, and compensation mea sures used by the Bureau are outlined briefly for each country in this appendix. To simplify the discussion, only the long-term measures used from 1960 are covered. The statistical measures used for the years before 1960 and the statistical series used for recent year estimates—until the long-term measures are available—are not men tioned. United States Output Gross product originating in market prices in 1972 dollars. Obtained by deflation of product originating in current prices based on income statistics by means of implicit price deflators. Deflators computed using value added in current prices, based on production statistics, divided by value added in constant prices, estimated by deflation of the current-price data on both outputs and inputs by wholesale price indexes.
