The data is available on the ONS website, under the international Comparisons of Productivity section. For your ease, I have provided the table below:

Current price GDP per hour worked (UK=100)

Year	UK	G7 exc. UK	Year	UK	G7 exc. UK	Year	UK	G7 exc. UK
1990	100		2000	100	107	2010	100	115
1991	100	119	2001	100	108	2011	100	114
1992	100	116	2002	100	106	2012	100	116
1993	100	112	2003	100	105	2013	100	117
1994	100	111	2004	100	105	2014	100	120
1995	100	111	2005	100	106
1996	100	109	2006	100	104
1997	100	109	2007	100	106
1998	100	109	2008	100	107
1999	100	111	2009	100	110

Data are in current prices, allowing cross-country comparison of productivity for each individual year.

* Productivity data for the G7 are unavailable for 1990 due to the absence of comparable data for pre-reunification Germany.
