In doing so, we explore the direct effects using company level data from the micro and small manufacturing firms survey data carried out by Indonesian Central Bureau of Statistics in 2019.

Our main results uncover that the impact of technology utilitation components are significant and positive on labor productivity. Furthermore, there is also evidence that financial access, company age, entrepreneur education influence the productivity of micro and small manufacturing firms.
