ABSTRACT
Many studies show that a decrease in productivity in Jordan took place in recent years, for example Malkawi (1987), Hammour (1988), and Malkawi (1989). The growth of gross domestic product (GDP) during the last 20 years is mainly due to capital investment, more than any other factor. In addition, the difficulty of acquiring new resources due to current financial conditions leads to the conclusion that an important way to increase the GDP is by the efficient use of existing resources, Al-Kloub (1991).
