Abstract

Since 2000, the EU-US gap has narrowed in terms of hours worked per capita but has widened in terms of GDP per hours worked. In France, this hourly productivity growth gap can be fully attributed to the most digitally intensive sectors — namely, producers and heavy users of IT technologies. Depuis 2000, l'écart Europe-à‰tats-Unis s'est resserré s'agissant du nombre d'heures travaillées par habitant, mais s'est élargi en termes de PIB par heures travaillées. En France en particulier, cet écart de croissance de la productivité horaire provient en totalité des secteurs o๠l'intensité numérique est la plus forte, à savoir les producteurs et gros utilisateurs de technologies de l'information.
