Production or labour costs constitute only a relatively low proportion of their total operational costs.

The sixth claim unit is for claim preparation costs.

The fifth claim unit is for claim preparation costs.

The third claim unit is for claim preparation costs.

Unit labor costs have risen, and potential output growth has fallen.

Fifth claim unit Claim preparation costs Iran seeks compensation in the amount of USD 51,075 for project implementation costs.

The first claim unit is for reduction in crop yields and the second claim unit is for claim preparation costs.

The Panel considers that this claim unit is for claim preparation costs.

Second claim unit Claim preparation costs Saudi Arabia seeks compensation in the amount of USD 5,874 for claim preparation costs.

On the other hand, there may be adjustment costs, especially social costs in the case of offshoring of labour intensive activities.

On the other hand, there may be adjustment costs, especially social costs in the case of the offshoring of labour intensive activities.

Unit labor costs in Greece, Portugal, Spain, and Italy grew 20 30 faster than in Germany in the euro s first decade, and somewhat faster than unit labor costs in northern Europe as a whole.

Declining competitiveness is best captured in a single indicator unit labor costs, which measure the average cost of labor per unit of output.

How is this possible? After all, higher productivity should bring lower unit labor costs.

As seen from table 7, the lower labour costs in developing countries and countries in transition more than offset lower labour productivity, resulting in production costs that are significantly lower in these countries than in developed countries.

Indeed, despite a 1.3 drop in real wages in 2011, unit labor costs remained unchanged.

Competitiveness, which is usually measured in terms of unit labor costs, is a relative concept.

After a decade that saw wages grow faster than productivity, unit labor costs (and the real exchange rate based on those costs) appreciated sharply.

The resulting rise in output per worker, together with slow wage growth, reduced unit labor costs.

Pregnant women pay the money in advance and afterwards the costs are offset with the labour allowance.

Persistently weak labor productivity growth has created a situation in which unit labor costs do not fall, even if real wages remain stagnant or decline. Indeed, despite a 1.3 drop in real wages in 2011, unit labor costs remained unchanged.

They may think that, in the long run, parities will reflect developments in relative unit labor costs.

The first claim unit is for medical treatment costs for persons injured by mines and ordnance explosions.

Since the euro s introduction, unit labor costs have risen dramatically faster in France than they have in Germany.

Unit labor costs reflect compensation levels and productivity gains in productivity can offset the effect of wage growth.

The higher requirements relate to the self sustainment costs of the additional infantry battalion and formed police unit.

The result has been elevated unit labor costs relative to France s peer group (especially Germany) and stubbornly high unemployment.

The higher requirements are due to the self sustainment costs of the additional infantry battalion and formed police unit.

As enterprises seek to reduce operational costs, they have the option to outsource non core activities to countries that can provide a high level of service with much lower labour costs.

Among economic factors, labour productivity based on low labour costs (for efficiency seeking investors) and high GDP growth rates (for market seeking investors) have been the most important determinants (Dasgupta and Ratha, 2000).

At market prices, without public subsidies, a unit of energy produced by solar or wind in the US costs five times more than a unit produced by oil, gas, or nuclear plants.

Third claim unit Claim preparation costs Jordan seeks compensation in the amount of USD 1,700,000 for claim preparation costs for its fourth and fifth F4 instalment claims, including its public health claim.

A reduction in unit labor costs can also increase competitiveness only to the extent that it actually results in price reductions.

Lower productivity and higher unit labor costs eroded firms' willingness to hire, leaving Europe with chronically higher unemployment than in the US.

A rapid reduction in unit labor costs, through structural reforms that increased productivity growth in excess of wages, is just as unlikely.

This has allowed enterprises, including SMEs, to replace other forms of capital and labour with information technology equipment, thus driving down overall costs.

Since 2001, unit labor costs have been growing faster than real GDP and employment, undermining the economy s competitiveness vis à vis developing countries.

There is a vast difference between unit labor costs real wages adjusted for productivity in Germany and in the heavily indebted southern countries.

Iraq states that this claim unit should be rejected because it is not for actual costs incurred by the Government of Saudi Arabia.

As incomes increase, rising labour costs and the entry of lower cost producers can rapidly erode the competitiveness of labour intensive manufactures, and new investments are needed to maintain productivity growth and to upgrade to higher value added activities.

Likewise, competitiveness losses have been partly reversed as wages have lagged productivity growth, thus reducing unit labor costs, and some structural reforms are ongoing.

Persistently weak labor productivity growth has created a situation in which unit labor costs do not fall, even if real wages remain stagnant or decline.

In the first decade of the euro, nominal unit labor costs rose sharply in Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, and Spain, while virtually flatlining in Germany.

The first proposed claim unit, in the amount of USD 2,159,326, was for costs incurred to strengthen the health care system in certain Iranian provinces.

117. Notes with concern the lack of detail in the proposed programme budget of unit costs for the replacement or acquisition of information technology related equipment
