Abstract

In Indonesia, sluggish growth in productivity and job creation in manufacturing wasparticularly disappointing in the first decade of the 2000s. The work of Anne Booth hasgrappled with the nexus between productivity, employment and welfare in Indonesiaand Asia. While she has been especially concerned with these relationships in theagricultural sector, Anne would be the first to acknowledge that some of the keyrelationships cut across sectors. Further, the benefits from agricultural reforms canonly be broadly realized in terms of poverty reduction if better jobs are availablefor agricultural workers to move into in manufacturing and services as countriesdevelop. This article takes up some of the productivity and employment relationshipsoutside agriculture that are critical to poverty alleviation, focusing especially on labourregulations, contracts and management systems. It thus touches indirectly on a subjectthat has been a focus of many of Anne Booths writings on Indonesia since the 1980s.Keywords: Labour productivity, Labour regulations, Job creation, Manufacturing,
