The labour productivity of the garment\nindustry is hampered by various obstacles and it is affecting on the overall export\nperformance of Myanmar’s garment industry. In order to ensure the growth of labour\nproductivity and promote its export to the global market, this study requires not only to\nfind out the major influencing factors affecting labour productivity but also to analyze\nthe relationship between labour productivity and garment exports of Myanmar. This\nstudy aims to determine the factors affecting on labour productivity of garment\nmanufacturing firms, to examine the direction of causation between labour productivity\nand export of garment manufacturing firms, and to analyze whether the relationship\nbetween labour productivity and export are long-run or short-run. This study uses the\ndescriptive and analytical research methods by using qualitative and quantitative\napproach. A panel regression model is applied to examine the relationship between\nlabour productivity and export of garment firms. The data was collected from 172\nsample garment exporting firms in Yangon. This study found that labour productivity\nof garment firms in Myanmar is determined by human capital, management practices\nof the firm, compensation and rewards structure of a firm, and employee welfare\nprogram or social factor, which are directly controlled by the firms themselves. On the\nother hand, the increase in the labour productivity of a firm is indirectly supported by\nsome external variables as government regulations and policies, public utilities and\ninfrastructure, and the national culture. These factors affect labour productivity to some\nextent, but firms cannot directly control these variables to promote employee\nproductivity. The results of Granger Causality Test describe that there is short-run unidirectional\ncausality where labour productivity causes to garment exports. This study\nsuggests that Myanmar garment industry should have great efforts on increasing labour\nproductivity by promoting the main influencing factors according to findings of this\nstudy. Because export growth of garment industry is mainly caused by its labour\nproductivity growth."}]},"item_1583103120197":{"attribute_name":"Files","attribute_type":"file","attribute_value_mlt":[{"accessrole":"open_access","date":[{"dateType":"Available","dateValue":"2023-07-13"}],"displaytype":"preview","filename":"Moe Hnin Phyu, 4PhD Ba-2.pdf","filesize":[{"value":"3.7 MB"}],"format":"application/pdf","licensetype":"license_0","mimetype":"application/pdf","url":{"url":"https://meral.edu.mm/record/8977/files/Moe Hnin Phyu, 4PhD Ba-2.pdf"},"version_id":"9031d768-7ba0-48a2-9de2-415915370c4b"}]},"item_1583103233624":{"attribute_name":"Thesis/dissertations","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_awarding_university":"Yangon University of Economics","subitem_supervisor(s)":[{"subitem_supervisor":"Pro-Rector  Dr. Cho Cho Thein"}]}]},"item_1583105942107":{"attribute_name":"Authors","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_authors":[{"subitem_authors_fullname":"Moe Hnin Phyu"}]}]},"item_1583108359239":{"attribute_name":"Upload type","attribute_value_mlt":[{"interim":"Other"}]},"item_1583108428133":{"attribute_name":"Publication type","attribute_value_mlt":[{"interim":"Dissertation"}]},"item_1583159729339":{"attribute_name":"Publication date","attribute_value":"2023-05-01"},"item_title":"Factors Affecting Labour Productivity and Export of Garment Industry in Myanmar(A Case Study of Garment Firms in Yangon) (Moe Hnin Phyu, 2023)","item_type_id":"21","owner":"20","path":["1582963436320","1582965742757"],"publish_date":"2023-07-13","publish_status":"0","recid":"8977","relation_version_is_last":true,"title":["Factors Affecting Labour Productivity and Export of Garment Industry in Myanmar(A Case Study of Garment Firms in Yangon) (Moe Hnin Phyu, 2023)"],"weko_creator_id":"20","weko_shared_id":-1},"updated":"2024-05-27T03:54:55.927251+00:00"}
