Output per worker surges to $20,000 a year in Panama

The productivity of workers in Panama has risen sharply in recent years.

In 2004, the value of the average worker’s output was measured at $12,496. Last year it rose to $19,608, according to official statistics.

The question now is whether wages have risen in proportion to the increase in productivity.
