It is logical to assume that productivity of information workers, defined as the portion of the economically active population whose working function is to process information (administrative employees, managers, teachers, journalists) depends directly on the investment in ICT capital (and particularly broadband).
Therefore, the economic growth logically leads to increasing complex production processes, which in term leads to creation of “information workers”, whose primary function is organizing the production.
The development and adoption of ICT is aimed at increasing the productivity of information workers.
The availability of computing and communications allows firms (and their information workers) to be more productive in their manipulation of information. Broadband is a specific component performing this important productivity enhancement.

The household spending based on the income generated from the direct and indirect jobs creates induced employment;
