LABOR PRODUCTIVITY INDICATORS IN THE SYSTEM OF INDICATORS OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Abstract
Monitoring Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), consensus on which was achieved until 2030 by countries led by the United Nations, is based on a set of global indicators. Their development required considering both the commonalities and the uniqueness of the participating countries in terms of information support of their development.
The international community is tasked with creating a multilevel «sustainable development statistics» that shall provide the necessary information platform for coordinating actions of all components of the national economic systems (governments, public organizations, businesses, population) with universal human priorities. In this respect, the author comments on the methodological requirements for ensuring coherence, consistency, complementarity at different levels of aggregation used by the United Nations as indicators for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. The article identifies new tasks and formulates directions to complete them, using labour productivity dynamics as an example.
