Sažetak
Equal labour cost competitiveness can be achieved in different environments across the
spectrum, for example: high productivity combined with high unit labour costs as in Japan, medium
productivity combined with medium unit labour costs, low productivity combined with low
unit labour costs as in China. Shipbuilding output is generally measured by the “delivered” CGT
within a year, based upon the combined CGT value of all vessels delivered within the year under
consideration. CGT is a broad-brush measure of work content and is based upon the Gross Tonnage
or Dwt of a vessel, adjusted by a compensation factor to refl ect the relative complexity of
the vessel (hull, machinery and outfi t) for different vessel types and sizes. Labour productivity can
be monitored in broad-brush terms by the CGT output per person, however, given the varying
labour resourcing structures, this needs to include both employees and sub-contract numbers.
Where total yard employment is taken into account a gross productivity is determined, refl ecting
the labour effi ciency of supporting operations such as marketing, procurement, business management
and administration, as well as production activities. A metric that has been used by the global
shipbuilding industry for a number of years is man hours/compensated gross ton (MH/CGT).
