Description
The garment industry is one of the prioritized sectors in Myanmar and increasing its
productivity is vital to Myanmar’s economy. The labour productivity of the garment
industry is hampered by various obstacles and it is affecting on the overall export
performance of Myanmar’s garment industry. In order to ensure the growth of labour
productivity and promote its export to the global market, this study requires not only to
find out the major influencing factors affecting labour productivity but also to analyze
the relationship between labour productivity and garment exports of Myanmar. This
study aims to determine the factors affecting on labour productivity of garment
manufacturing firms, to examine the direction of causation between labour productivity
and export of garment manufacturing firms, and to analyze whether the relationship
between labour productivity and export are long-run or short-run. This study uses the
descriptive and analytical research methods by using qualitative and quantitative
approach. A panel regression model is applied to examine the relationship between
labour productivity and export of garment firms. The data was collected from 172
sample garment exporting firms in Yangon. This study found that labour productivity
of garment firms in Myanmar is determined by human capital, management practices
of the firm, compensation and rewards structure of a firm, and employee welfare
program or social factor, which are directly controlled by the firms themselves. On the
other hand, the increase in the labour productivity of a firm is indirectly supported by
some external variables as government regulations and policies, public utilities and
infrastructure, and the national culture. These factors affect labour productivity to some
extent, but firms cannot directly control these variables to promote employee
productivity. The results of Granger Causality Test describe that there is short-run unidirectional
causality where labour productivity causes to garment exports. This study
suggests that Myanmar garment industry should have great efforts on increasing labour
productivity by promoting the main influencing factors according to findings of this
study. Because export growth of garment industry is mainly caused by its labour
productivity growth.
