The study of productivity in the construction industry is gaining importance due to its positive effects on the economy of the construction companies and of the country as a whole. Nowadays, improving the productivity of building projects may have a direct impact in the survival of companies because of the great rivalry existing between them. In this project the factors that impact the performance of construction works and, therefore, the planning and the building costs. The productivity of labour is particularly important especially in developing countries, where most of the building construction work is still on manual basis. This paper reports on a survey made on project managers and experienced engineers of building projects in kerala where an increase in productivity is being sought. The survey will be carried out by a questionnaire and responses. The ten most significant factors affecting labour productivity for small, medium and large companies are identified. The knowledge and appropriate management of these factors can improve the planning of the work during the project development phase and the execution phase. This will have positive effects regarding time shortening for the execution of activities and, as a result, cost reductions.
