In Q4 2023, production costs in construction rose by 0.3% Costs of production indices in construction - fourth quarter 2023

In Q4 2023, the production costs in construction rose by 0.3% over a quarter, after +0.4% in the previous quarter. They decelerated both in civil engineering (+0.5% after +0.9%) and in specialised construction works (+0.2% after +0.4%) and remained virtually stable in construction of buildings (+0.1%, as in the previous quarter). The rise of labour costs (+0.8% after +1.1%) was partially offset by the fall of materials costs.

Year on year, the production costs for construction sped up slightly (+2.2% in Q4 2023 after +1.9% in Q3 2023). They bounced back in civil engineering (+2.2% after -1.0%) because of the upturn of materials costs, accelerated slightly in buildings construction (+2.5% after +2.4%) but slowed down in specialized construction works (+2.1% after +2.5%).

graphiqueProduction costs in public works

Revision

For the third quarter of 2023, the quarterly change in the construction production cost index is unchanged: it stands at +0.4% as published in December 2023.

For further information

Monthly production cost indices are released every three months.

These indices aggregate the cost indices of six or seven factors of production: capital, labour, energy, materials, services, transport and wastes (only for public works).

These indices are subject to revision. They are primarily used as inputs for the national accounts and macroeconomics analyses.
