The success of a construction project mainly depends on the management of the highly correlated inputs like labor-force, materials and capital. Since labor-force varies from region to region, it contains many uncertainties. Therefore, among these inputs labor-force is the most difficult one to manage. In this sense, it is important to determine the factors affecting labor-productivity to manage labor-force effectively. In the literature there are many studies in which the factors were identified from the managers' perspectives. In this study, it was argued that craft workers have the biggest impact on labor productivity and hence, their opinion should also be considered during identifying these factors. According to this argument in this study it was aimed to compare labor productivity perspectives of managers and craft workers. In this context, a previously used questionnaire to evaluate construction managers' perspectives by Kazaz et. al [1] was applied to craft workers. The results revealed that, despite the difference of the priorities of managers and craft workers, the most influential factors that affect labor productivity were grouped under organizational factors.
