Abstract In the construction industry, labour productivity is the most important factor in construction projects. As construction work widely depends on labour. When labour productivity is maintained under the good management, the construction projects can be completed on time, with better quality and controlled cost. When the labour productivity is maintained under bad or low management, Construction projects face various problems such as delays, increased costs, and poor quality of work. This project study focuses on understanding the impact of labour productivity on the construction process. This project study was conducted through reviewing earlier research works relating to labour productivity and by collecting primary data through a questionnaire survey. The response data collected from the questionnaire survey were analysed to determine the main factors affecting labour productivity. The study found that the workers skill level, availability of materials, site conditions, supervision, and construction management practices have a major effect on labour productivity, which directly affects the project time, planning, cost, and quality. The findings of this study work will help the construction professionals to understand labour productivity issues and take the necessary steps to improve labour performance and overall construction project execution. The questionnaire survey was conducted using Google Forms and responses were collected from construction professionals, site engineers, supervisors, contractors, and workers from the Karnataka state region.
