    Could you please paraphrase this text:

    Labour productivity growth is a key dimension of economic performance and an essential driver of changes in living standards. Growth in gross domestic product (GDP) per capita can be broken down into growth in labour productivity, measured as growth in GDP per hour worked, and changes in the extent of labour utilisation, measured as changes in hours worked per capita. High labour productivity growth can reflect greater use of capital, and/or a decrease in the employment of low-productivity workers, or general efficiency gains and innovation.
    Although the ratio used to calculate labour productivity provides a measure of the efficiency with which
    inputs are used in an economy to produce goods and services, it can be measured in various ways. Labour
    productivity is equal to the ratio between a volume measure of output (gross domestic product or gross
    value added) and a measure of input use (the total number of hours worked or total employment).3

    Labour productivity = volume measure of output / measure of input use
    Volume measure of output:
    The volume measure of output reflects the goods and services produced by the workforce. Numerator of
    the ratio of labour productivity, the volume measure of output is measured either by gross domestic
    product (GDP) or gross value added (GVA). Although these two different measures can both be used as
    output measures, there is normally a strong correlation between the two (Table 1.2). There is a preference
    for value added as taxes are excluded.
    Measure of input use:
    The measure of input use reflects the time, effort and skills of the workforce. Denominator of the ratio of
    labour productivity, the input measure is the most important factor that influences the measure of labour
    productivity (Table 1.3). Labour input is measured either by the total number of hours worked of all
    persons employed or total employment (head count).

    this is a helpful link, please paraphrase but the context should be the same.
