Falls short of what I expected


I was actually expecting that the Labour agreement for 2012, that was signed by the Government, one of the main Portuguese Unions and companies would actually address productivity issues. By focusing only on work extension (number of hours worked) and not quality of output (value added or value produced by unit of time), Portugal is actually not reinforcing its competitiveness. And that is a mistake!
