Agricultural and other physically demanding sectors are important sources of growth in developing countries but prevalent diseases such as malaria adversely impact the productivity, labor supply, and choice of job tasks among workers by reducing physical capacity. This study identifies the...

Agricultural and other physically demanding sectors are important sources of growth in developing countries but prevalent diseases such as malaria adversely impact the productivity, labor supply, and occupational choice of workers in these sectors by reducing physical capacity. This study...

We study the relationship between physical activity as a direct measure of effort and productivity. First, we evaluate the association of agricultural workers' physical activity with their daily productivity, which is directly observed from company personnel piece-rate payment records, and find...

This paper investigates an alternative proxy for individual worker productivity in physical work settings: a direct measure of physical activity using an accelerometer. First, the paper compares worker labor outcomes, such as labor supply and daily productivity obtained from firm personnel data,...

We investigate the role of economic incentives for health behaviour by estimating the impacts of the London Congestion Charge, a major transportation policy which increases the cost of car use within the central London area, on travel-related physical activity and health. Individuals living...
