The construction industry is an important economic material production sectors,and labor productivity is an important indicator that reflects the level of productivity ofthe industry. In recent years, labor costs continued to rise, further weakening thebuilding corporate profit margins, is undoubtedly a challenge to the development ofconstruction enterprises. Improving labor productivity is one of the most effectivemeasures in response to the rise in labor costs. In addition, through a lot of literatureresearch, we find that domestic construction labor productivity discussion is relativelypoor, and research scope has limitations. Therefore, whether from industry level,enterprise level or academic level, it is necessary for a comprehensive and systematicstudy of labor productivity in the construction industry.On the basis of literature review and basic theory research, this article hasconducted the research of present situation. After a basic description of the constructionindustry labor productivity, use three different indicators of labor productivityrecalculated select what kind of data as a reference to provide the basis for differentcircumstances, different subjects. Among them, which reflects the Labor costs indexshows that our country construction artificial expense accounts for only about20%ofthe value of the products, the future cost of labor has bigger rise space. In addition, thispaper also carried out labor productivity contrast between industries, urban cities, anddifferent countries. From different aspects of construction labor productivity, we have asystem of knowledge. Research shows that china’s construction labor productivity levelis low, there is a big space of promotion.The future labor productivity will finish highspeed development to the steady development of the transition.On the basis of full understanding of the labor productivity of China’s constructionindustry, this article has conducted the research to the influential factors. In this paper tosolve the actual problem of construction enterprise as the starting point, refining theeffect of construction labor productivity in five aspects: the quality of workers, theorganization and management, technical level, environmental factors and some otherexternal factors. On this basis, after combing and analysis of30selected factors thatmay impact on the construction industry labor productivity. Through socialinvestigation, let the investigation object is factors influence size grading, finallycalculated the influence of each factor index, find the labor productivity factors plays a key role. The results show the construction labor productivity have the biggest impacton five factors are as follows: management/technical personnel quality, resources(materials, equipment) supply of timeliness, the degree of standardization of operatingprocedures, design drawings of the timeliness and accuracy, communication andcollaboration between the major players of construction.Finally, this paper believe that the following measures can be taken to improvelabor productivity: improve the quality of workers, improve the organization andmanagement of production, increase technical innovation practice efforts, mobilize theenthusiasm of workers.
