With the purpose of contributing to the advance of the knowledge on the labor productivity of the Mexican cities, in this paper the following issues are analyzed for the period from 1960 to 2003: a) to compare the changes in the occupational structure of the country with those of the Metropolitan Zone of Mexico City (ZMCM); b) to determine the magnitudes and tendencies of the labor average productivity according to 17 groups of tertiary activities in the ZMCM; c) to identify in which of those groups the ZMCM is specialized. The increasing hegemony of the service sector in the labor structure of Mexico, mainly in the ZMCM, means that the country advances within the denominated Service Revolution, but it is concluded that two negative processes exist that restrain the function of the tertiary sector like engine of the economic development: the high level of informal services and the significant fall of labor productivity in the tertiary activities.
Con el fin de contribuir al avance del conocimiento sobre la productividad laboral de las ciudades mexicanas, en este artículo se analiza la siguiente temática para el periodo de 1960 a 2003: a) comparar los cambios en la estructura ocupacional del país con los de la Zona Metropolitana de la Ciudad de México (ZMCM); b) determinar las magnitudes y tendencias de la productividad media laboral según 17 grupos de actividades terciarias en la ZMCM; c) identificar en cuales de ellas se especializa la urbe. La creciente hegemonía del sector servicios en la estructura laboral de México, principalmente en la ZMCM, significa que el país avanza dentro de la denominada Revolución Terciaria, pero se concluye que existen dos procesos negativos que frenan la función del sector terciario como motor del desarrollo económico: el elevado nivel de servicios informales y la significativa caída de la productividad laboral en las actividades terciarias.
