The same indicator for neighboring countries — with links to their pages
Gross domestic product per person employed in constant dollars at purchasing power parity. It differs from GDP per capita in the denominator: there the whole population, here only those who work — and the difference between the two indicators speaks of demography and employment. A country can have a low GDP per capita alongside decent productivity simply because only a small part of the population works: many children, many women out of employment, early retirement.
Important: There are no aggregates for country groups: the correct denominator is the number of people employed, and we have no separate series for the employed. The labor force will not do — it includes the unemployed, and the discrepancy is largest precisely in countries with high unemployment.
