Abstract

Labour productivity is at the heart of economic performance and prosperity. For that reason, the Economic Research Institute of Northern Ireland (ERINI) has embarked on a research programme on regional labour productivity in Northern Ireland in order to study what drives labour productivity at a regional level and to recommend policies to boost its levels and growth. These essays put together the main findings of this research programme. Some of the published papers in this programme have been updated, so they have to be considered as superseded by this monograph.
