Summary: | Construction Labour Productivity (CLP) is important to the construction industry as it has a direct impact on the competitiveness of small and medium enterprises. This article’s purpose is to review the research carried out to date on identification of the factors related to CLP. A thorough literature review was conducted with all available scientific databases and a total of 88 papers were shortlisted with the keywords ‘Construction Labour Productivity’. The articles were thoroughly reviewed to identify the factors related to CLP and rank them according to their importance mentioned in different studies using Jenks classification method. The importance of CLP factors according to geographic regions was also identified. The methods used for CLP estimation from the factors are briefly discussed and finally, the recommendations for the improvement of CLP made by researchers are summarized. The finding of the study will help in understanding the directions required for better management of CLP in different geographical regions. |
