Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study, using micro data taken from official statistics and original surveys for Japanese firms and consumers, empirically analyzed the productivity of the service industries and obtained various new findings. First, demand side factors greatly affect productivity in the service industries. Second, quality improvement of services is undervalued in the existing statistics. Third, innovation and globalization contribute to the productivity in the service industries. Fourth, occupational licensing system and labor market regulations negatively affect productivity of the service firms. Fifth, positive productivity effect of training investments is large in service firms. Sixth, policy uncertainty is detrimental to firms’investments to enhance productivity.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
サービス産業は経済の8割近くを占めており、その生産性向上が経済全体の潜在成長率を高める上で重要な課題になっている。しかし、企業・事業所のミクロデータを用いたサービス産業の生産性の実証研究は、基礎統計の豊富な製造業に比べて海外でも立ち遅れている。こうした中、本研究は、サービス産業の生産性の実態やそれを規定する要因に関する新たな実証的事実を提示しており、内外の生産性研究の進展に貢献すると同時に、経済成長戦略をはじめとする政策形成にとっても有用性の高いものである。
