What is the effect of increased productivity on a country's leisure time? How might increased productivity affect career opportunities?
Increased productivitiy means that workers are able to work fewer hours to produce the same amount or more products, leaving leisure time. Increased productivity usually indicates an increased demand for skilled workers, including those hired for production, as well as marketing and management personnel.

Increased production could have a harsh inmpact on a single parent family. If the parent works in a factory and production must rise than it would cause great stress and would make the parent stay longer at work and have less time for his/her children. this could also affect career opurtunities but in a good way. with increased productivity a business would be doing much better economically and in need of a larger workforce creating jobs for hundreds, maybe thousands.

[The effect that increased productivity on a country's lesiure time would be a decrease in incomes. With everyone working that means that the moneny would have to be didvided into more bodies of people. Increase in productivity also would affect career opertunities. They wouldn't be available as much as they are now. Plus you would also be working with not as much as you should be making.

Increased productivity means workers must stay longer and do more work which causes them to spend less time with their families. Increased productivity also has a good side it will give people more job opportunities.

the effect on a country if productivity increased would be good if that country's unemployment rate is high. if that countries unemplotment rate is low than that would mean that people might have to increase their hours and work harder. it would affect career oportunities because there would be more jobs for people who do not have jobs.

an increase in productivity on a country can cause great job openingings for people, with this help the unemplyedment rate from going any higher than it already is. also by having more jobs for people the economy will gradually improve itself.

Increased productivity on a country would possibly provide more jobs, and then the unemployment rate would go down. It would affect career oppurtunities becuase not that many careers would be available then.

increased productivity makes it more possible to reduce the number of hours in a workweek so that would allow more leisure time for the worker. If the worker prodeces more goods faster they wouldn't have to stay at work as long. if you are able to produce more it would mean better career opportunities for you. jobs are looking for people who can produce quicker so the product or service can be available to consumers more quickly, giving the company more money.

If wages increase faster than gains productivity, the cost of producing goods increases and prices rise. Even though workers earn more money, they are not able to improve their standard of living b/c of rising prices. Basically the more they increase the mor money us concumers have to pay.  |
