Background:
According to the International Labour Organization (ILO, 2015), Latin America and the Caribbean have approximately 10 million small businesses and 76 million self-employed workers, together generating 75% of the region's employment.

On average, 80% of workers are employed in sectors with below-average productivity, resulting in lower wages, poorer working conditions, and reduced access to social protection. This affects economic performance, limits productive integration, and reinforces income inequality.

Business productivity is measured by comparing inputs—such as raw material costs, logistics, energy, and employee training—with outputs, usually represented by sales. Monitoring these factors helps maximize resource utilization, improve efficiency, and increase revenue.
