i also don't really know why, but i can make an educated guess: the much maligned labor market rigidities may be at fault. as companies in Europe can not just hire and fire just like that (the cost of firing someone are often prohibitive), they try to make do with as few employees as possible. bad for the unemployment stats, but good for labor productivity.
