Abstract:The phenomenon of procyclical productivity has always stimulated a particular interest in macroeconomic and labour market debates. This study focuses on the United States and Japan, since the different industrial relations in these two economies serve to cast a sharper light on the procyclical productivity debate. The phenomenon of labour hoarding is evaluated and a comprehensive interpretation is provided.
