The 2023 turnover per employee in Europe's books and periodicals publishing industry shows substantial variation across countries, with Italy leading at 240.3 thousand euros, followed by Belgium and France. Central and Eastern European countries like Bulgaria and Bosnia and Herzegovina report significantly lower figures. In 2024, projected data suggest stability without substantial year-on-year variation, possibly indicating saturation in Western markets, while emerging markets may present growth opportunities. The last five-year CAGR suggests incremental growth, although individual national markets exhibit variances.
Future trends to watch include digital transformation's impact on productivity and employee efficiency, potential market saturation in mature economies, and post-pandemic shifts in consumer reading habits influencing turnover rates.
