The history and output of industry is closely related to the concept of productivity. According to the analyses by economic historians, the successive industrial revolutions always generated a rapid increase in productivity. However, this growth was volatile until the next industrial revolution: peaks and valleys followed each other. From the end of the 2000s, industrial labour productivity in developed countries has been decreasing once again, despite the fact that a new technical and technological era started (industry 4.0). Statistical offices, economic research institutes and central banks pay special attention to changes in labour productivity and its measurement possibilities, with particular regard to the effects of changes in the economic structure. The authors focus in present study on industrial productivity in the appropriate areas, complemented by the aspect of labour productivity. In the course of the short- and long-term analyses of the topic, the authors examine the methods applied, the influencing factors, the connection with the sustainability of the economic output, and analyse domestic experiences.
