An econometric analysis of labour productivity in Canadian industries : some further results / by Someshwar P. Rao.: EC22-3/1979-134E-PDF

"In my earlier paper (1978), using the net output data, I have estimated productivity equations for 35 industrial sectors in an effort to analyze the causes of recent productivity slowdown In Canada. In the present paper, using the gross output data productivity equations based on KLEM (capital, labour, energy, and material inputs) production functions are estimated for the same 35 sectors. This would enable us to get a precise estimate for the total factor productivity growth (technical progress), which in turn would enable us to provide a proper accounting of the sources of labour productivity growth"--Abstract.
