IMAD took on the key tasks of a national productivity board, which include analysis of productivity and competitiveness developments in Slovenia and preparing annual productivity reports. Thereby Slovenia is fulfilling the Council’s recommendation for euro area Member States to establish national productivity boards by the beginning of 2018. Productivity analyses have been part of IMAD's regular publications for many years, but in 2019 we also started to publish them separately in the form of an annual productivity report.
