Abstract

Level of productivity is vital for each country striving develop sustainably. It appears that accounting of productivity requires additional attention of scientists. This paper is focused on the methods allowing to evaluate productivity in economy sectors. Scrutinized scientific literature proposes the following possible perceptions of productivity increase: as labour move from low to high productivity sectors, the process contributes to aggregate country’s productivity growth, and causes further productivity increase in more productive sectors. After critical scientific literature review, conclusions about contemporary productivity methods and are being be provided.
