Table explanation


This table presents the outcomes of the Dutch growth accounts. The growth accounts show the contributions of the different production factors to the economic growth. This helps to determine which part of production growth is explained by a change in input of capital (K), labour (L), energy (E), materials (M) or services (S).
The results of the growth accounts also show the contribution of multi-factor productivity. This is the part of economic growth that cannot be attributed to one of the production factors. Disaggregated data, labour and capital productivity are also published in this table. The data on consolidated production and consumption are not available for the years 1995-2020. This is due to the lack of an input-output table with volume changes for these reporting years.

Data available from: 1995.

Status of the figures:
Data for the reporting years 2023 and 2024 are provisional.

Changes as of 9 October 2025:
Data of 2024 have been added to this table.

It has come to light that there was an error in the series for the sectors R_U Culture, recreation, other services and Q Health and social work activities in the previous year.
For this reason, new figures have been used for all years starting from 1995 in this delivery.
For the other sectors, this has no effect, as the figures from previous years remain unchanged.

When will new figures be published?
Provisional data are published around 9 months after the end of the reporting year. Final data are released 33 months after the end of the reporting year.

Description topics

Growth accounts
The volume change of the consolidated production or value added is attributed to the different production factors and to multi-factor productivity.
Based on consolidated production
The volume change of the consolidated production is attributed to the different production factors and to multi-factor productivity. The contributions are measured in percentage points. The contributions of capital, labour, intermediate consumption and multi-factor productivity together add up to the volume change of the consolidated production.
Contribution of labour
The part of volume change of consolidated production caused by a change in input of labour.
Contribution of labour composition
The part of volume change of consolidated production caused by the change in background characteristics of labour. These characteristics are sex, age, level of education, branch/industry and covered by a collective agreement. This variable is part of the contribution of labour.
Based on value added
The volume change of the value added is attributed to the different production factors and to multi-factor productivity. The contributions are measured in percentage points. The contributions of capital, labour, and multi-factor productivity together add up to the volume change of value added.
Contribution of labour
The part of volume change of value added caused by a change in input of labour.
Contribution of labour composition
The part of volume change of value added caused by the change in background characteristics of labour. These characteristics are sex, age, level of education, branch/industry and covered by a collective agreement. This variable is part of the contribution of labour.
Labour productivity
The change of consolidated production or value added per unit of labour volume. Labour volume here is the hours worked.
Based on consolidated production
Labour productivity change based on consolidated production.
Labour productivity change (%)
Labour productivity (2021=100)
Based on value added
Labour productivity change based on value added.
Labour productivity change (%)
Labour productivity (2015=100)
Labour
Labour compensation of both employees and self employed as the value component and hours worked and labour composition as volume components. Labour composition is only shown in the growths accounts selections for value added and production.
Hours worked
The total of actually hours worked of an employee or self-employed person. The total of working hours of employees is calculated by adding the hours paid for (the amount of agreed upon hours and paid overtime) to the unpaid overtime less the amount of hours that is paid for but not actually worked. This includes hours of sick leave, maternity leave, strikes etcetera. The hours worked for the self-employed are directly determined.
Compensation of labour (mln euros)
Wages of employees and social contributions paid by employers and an attributed share of labour compensation for the self-employed, less the subsidies on wages provided by the government.
Compensation of labour (2021=100)
Wages of employees and social contributions paid by employers and an attributed share of labour compensation for the self-employed, less the subsidies on wages provided by the government.
Production factors
Production factors in the growth accounts consist of labour, capital and intermediate consumption when the output is production. If output is value added the production factors are labour and capital.
Total production factors (mln euros)
Total input capital and labour
The total deployment of the production factors capital and labour in the production process.
Total production factors (2021=100)
Total input capital and labour
The total deployment of the production factors capital and labour in the production process.
