Abstract: Using the idea of the multidimensional generalization of the Duncans' index, the productivity per worker differentials across groups of firms can be decomposed into different components attributed to differences in: sectoral productivity, investment in human and physical capital, size and other determinants. More specifically, for decomposing group productivity differentials we propose an Oaxaca's decomposition – based approach which assumes a Reimer's weighting scheme. An application of the decomposing method aimed at evaluating productivity differences across foreign owned and domestic firms in the Italian manufacturing sector is also provided.
