Résumé anglais The Relation Between the Quality of the Labour Factor and its Productive Efficiency, by Jean-Pierre Huiban. This article studies the link between the quality of the labour factor and its productive efficiency, based on a model in which one production function with a heterogeneous labour factor is estimated for all French industrial sectors. It is then suggested disaggregating the productive system into homogeneous subsets, based on the level of capital intensity followed by the average size of the units, and estimating a specific link for each one of them. The notion of the functional distribution of jobs is thus introduced in order to enhance the definition of the quality of the labour factor. Estimates are made for individual corporate data, first in an intersectorial context and then within the dairy sector. The study concludes that different forms of link exist, within which the relative contribution of the different job categories to the productive efficiency of the whole can vary.
