The main purpose of this paper is to compare the productivity of the metal production sector with other manufacturing industries in Poland. Estimation of the productivity was carried out using the Malmquist Productivity Index (MPI), which is based on a deterministic approach. Moreover a decomposition of calculated Malmquist index has made it possible to identify which factors (technological progress or changes in technical efficiency) determine the productivity change in metal production sector in Poland.
