PRODUCTIVITY RESOURCES: THE U.S. EXPERIENCE
Abstract
In the context of the dynamic changes in the volume of railway transportation its successful operation depends on the efficient use of all production resources involved in operational activities. Among them crucial importance is retained by human resources, their ability to achieve goals, high professional efficiency, and ultimately all that is collectively reflected in the index of labor productivity. The analysis in the article makes it possible to compare the experience of the United States and Russia in the field of railways, to identify development trends and means to improve the resource potential of transport companies.
