The productivity of labor is affected by the amount physical capital, the amount of human capital, and the level of technology. An increase in either physical capital or human capital means that more goods and services can be produced with a given amount of labor, so that the productivity of labor increases. Similarly a technological improvement also increases the productivity of labor.
