It does not measure how hard someone works \u2014 it measures how much value their working time creates, given the equipment, organisation and size of the business in which they work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the measure that determines whether a wage increase is inflationary. If wages rise by 5% and productivity by 5%, unit costs remain unchanged and prices do not need to rise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a7f99614e2d0&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a7f99614e2d0\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"850\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/techanalysisnews.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/productivity-greece-euro-area-en.png\" alt=\"Real labour productivity per person employed in Greece and the euro area, 2015 to 2025\" class=\"wp-image-8093\" srcset=\"https:\/\/techanalysisnews.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/productivity-greece-euro-area-en.png 1600w, https:\/\/techanalysisnews.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/productivity-greece-euro-area-en-300x159.png 300w, https:\/\/techanalysisnews.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/productivity-greece-euro-area-en-1024x544.png 1024w, https:\/\/techanalysisnews.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/productivity-greece-euro-area-en-768x408.png 768w, https:\/\/techanalysisnews.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/productivity-greece-euro-area-en-1536x816.png 1536w, https:\/\/techanalysisnews.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/productivity-greece-euro-area-en-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Greek productivity remains below its 2015 level.
