I also wonder if a focus on safety has slowed things some for the yolo days of just breathing in asbestos and lead.

- parineum 4y agoI find both your parent and your comment to be the obvious answers for why "productivity" has dropped. People are probably just as, if not more, productive. It just takes more work to complete a single house/office/job due to both worker safety and building safety. Having some experience in the field, the idea that migrant/undocumented/illegal/etc workers are spoiling the workforce is pretty absurd (as is suggested in a few other comments). There were plenty of terrible workers that I knew to be or suspected to be in that category but the rate that they were bad was no different than anyone else.
