Quality Adjusted Labour Input (QALI) is a method of measuring changes in the volume of labour input into production which accounts for changes in the composition (or ‘quality’) of the workforce as well as changes in hours worked. This article presents new estimates for 2014 for the whole economy, the market sector and a range of sub-aggregates by industry, educational qualifications, age and gender, as well as revisions to the back series. QALI provides a more comprehensive description of labour input to the production process than pure volume metrics such as hours worked, jobs or workers employed. The strength of these metrics relative to output growth since the economic downturn has come to be referred to as the "productivity puzzle". If labour quality had fallen over this period, then this would have offered a partial explanation of the puzzle. The new estimates show that labour quality did fall - fractionally - in 2014. This was the first decrease in labour quality on an annual basis since comparable QALI estimates began in 1994, and followed only a small rise in labour quality in 2013. However, these estimates suggest only that labour quality has stopped exacerbating the productivity puzzle; they do not explain it.
