Productivity
In a business context, how people work, what they do and what they deliver has a direct impact on the productivity of a business or other organisation, which in turn drives the culture, profitability, competitiveness and long-term viability of that organisation.
Here you will find details of programmes, events, grant schemes, surveys, webinars and blogs all on the topic of productivity.
The Business Improvement Programme has been developed to support businesses to deliver sustainable efficiency and productivity gains that will create market competitiveness and a solid operational platform for future growth. The programme is open to those businesses who recognise that continuous improvement is key to sustainable growth and that their workflows can always be better.

The primary aim of this Government of Jersey grant scheme is to enable businesses in Jersey to make productivity improvements that would not be achieved without support.
To apply for grant support through the Productivity Support Scheme, the business will need to identify a productivity improvement project and have a detailed and fully costed project delivery plan.

We commissioned this independent survey in 2023 for the 2nd time to help us understand how businesses are approaching productivity and how we can support business to address the challenges and opportunities for improving it.
This was an independent, online Productivity survey with a mix of semi-structured questions. Hosted by 4insight, the survey used their in-house survey software to enable cross tabulations of various questions, allowing for comparison of difference segments, sectors, positions and business age.
Of the responses received after data quality checks and cleaning 355 data sets were useable a significant increase from the 217 responses received in 2022. The largest group of respondents were owner/founders but also included CEO’s and Directors, middle managers and supervisor/team leader levels and involved businesses that had been established for 1-21 years or more, across 15 industry sectors.
This webinar hosted by Jersey Business delivered the results of the productivity survey.
