TL;DR
- The salary negotiation for Colombia's 2026 minimum wage will begin with a starting point of 6.42% increase, derived from 0.91% Total Factor Productivity (TFP) and 5.51% inflation.
- TFP contributed 0.91 points to the economy's 2.91% value-added growth, with capital and labor also contributing positively.
- The composition of labor subtracted 0.20 points, suggesting employment quality or structure did not match overall economic advancement.
- Capital's boost came mainly from non-ICT assets (0.71 points), while ICT capital contributed only 0.05 points, indicating a reliance on traditional structures.
- Productivity per hour worked grew by 0.57%, driven by TFP, but capital and labor composition had negative impacts.
- Productivity per person employed fell by 0.32%, as decreases in hours worked and capital per employee offset TFP gains.
- The Dane advanced the release of productivity data to ensure its credibility and avoid coinciding with the start of salary negotiations.
- Productivity data is a key technical reference for minimum wage increases, alongside inflation, expected inflation, labor productivity contribution, and employment behavior.
