GDP (PPP) per person employed 2014

Gross domestic product in purchasing power parity per person employed

Map Facts

This map shows gross domestic product (in purchasing power parity) per person employed. GDP (PPP) per person employed is an indicator on labour productivity. It indicates how much output a given number of employees produce. As it includes the total production by persons actually employed in the region, it gives a more truthful picture than the standard indicator GDP per capita (which relates the GDP to the entire population).

In virtually all BSR countries, major metropolitan areas are in a class of their own in terms of productivity per employee. However, several more peripheral regions, which are rich in natural resources or major tourism infrastructure, challenge this overall pattern.
