The paper studies empirically the impactof labour on the economic growth in Bulgariaby applying the growth accounting approach.It examines the relationship between labourgrowth and real GDP growth measuredthrough their rates on a constant and on achain basis. The labour elasticity coefficientin the production function is calculated bysubstantiating four alternative approaches.Based on the different elasticity coefficientvariants and the data on employmentdynamics, the range of impact of labouron the realised rates of economic growthis weighed. On the basis of the outcomesof the investigation a conclusion is reachedthat real GDP growth in the period 1994-1995 and 2002-2008 was under thepositive and changeable over time impactof employment which, except for 1995, wasweaker than the impact from developmentsin capital and total factor productivity. Theeffect from labour developments is mostpronounced in episodes of negative or lowpositive rates of real GDP growth as was thecase in 1992-1993, 1997 and the post-2009interval, and is strongly negative. A similarnegative effect is also observed in the period1998-2000, however weaker compared tothe consequences from developments inthe rest of the supply-driven growth factors
