Abstract
The aim of this research is to study and analyze the evolution of labor productivity in facilities of large manufacturing sector (public sector) in Iraq in order to identify the strengths and weaknesses, and work to address weaknesses and strengths. recognize the reality of the manufacturing industry in Iraq by some indicators, the relative importance in production , employment GDP. The main conclusions are is a weak competitiveness of manufacturing products through weakness of most indicators , including low contribution value added of manufacturing in (GDP) during the study period (2000-2011) , as it was within (0.7% , 2.5%) , the ratios are positive, except for the year 2000 was to contribute a negative because of the high value of production requirements is greater than the value of production, on the whole they are ratios are low, and this shows how weak suffered the manufacturing sector, as well as the evolution of productivity not consistent with the evolution of wages in facilities manufacturing sector large (public sector), and this clearly indicates the weakness of the relationship between wages and labor productivity and lack of linkage between the two, and that increases in the rate of wage but is increased to be rewarded rise in the general price level and covers the cost of living for workers caused height. perhaps in the rate of wage increases may not compensate for the rise in prices. الكلمات المفتاحية Keywords الصناعة التحويلية Manufacturing الأهمية النسبية The relative productivity إنتاجية العمل Labor productivity معدل الأجر Wage rate The aim of this research is to study and analyze the evolution of labor productivity in facilities of large manufacturing sector (public sector) in Iraq in order to identify the strengths and weaknesses, and work to address weaknesses and strengths. recognize the reality of the manufacturing industry in Iraq by some indicators, the relative importance in production , employment GDP.
