Labor Productivity for Selected Service-Providing Industries

On August 26, 2026, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) updated measures for 30 detailed industries in Productivity and Costs by Industry: Selected Service-Providing Industries - 2025. In 2025, these industries accounted for over 26.6 millions jobs.

The charts below feature trends of productivity and related series in selected time periods for five service-providing industries — commercial banking; electric power generation; software publishers; full-service restaurants; and general freight trucking, long-distance. Each industry had productivity and output growth over the long-term. With the exception of electric power generation, each of these industries reported gains in both productivity and output across each of the selected periods. Hourly compensation grew for all five industries across the selected periods. One industry – software publishers – experienced growth in hours in every period.
