Resolution Foundation – Yanked Away: Accounting for the Post-Pandemic Productivity Divergence Between Britain and America
Summary
The document explores the divergence in labor productivity between the United Kingdom and America post-pandemic.
In the 2010s, the UK showed extremely low productivity growth, second only to Italy among G7 countries. In the 2020s, the situation worsened, with average productivity growth in the UK at just 0.4% per year from 2019 to 2024, a third lower than the already weak growth of the previous decade.
