The word is made up of three parts: 'Arbeit' (work), the linking -s, and 'Leistung' (performance, output). So it literally describes the performance produced at work.
Die Firma misst die Arbeitsleistung ihrer Angestellten mit einer neuen Software.
The company measures its employees' work performance with new software.
To describe the quality of work, 'Arbeitsleistung' (work performance) is often combined with adjectives such as 'gut' (good), 'schlecht' (poor), 'hoch' (high), or 'durchschnittlich' (average). Typical verbs are 'steigern' (to increase), 'verbessern' (to improve), or 'bewerten' (to evaluate).
Durch flexible Arbeitszeiten konnte er seine Arbeitsleistung deutlich steigern.
Through flexible working hours, he was able to significantly increase his work performance.
In legal or economic texts, 'Arbeitsleistung' (work performed) describes the contractually agreed activity. Here, the verb 'erbringen' (to perform/provide) is often used.
Der Arbeitnehmer ist verpflichtet, die vereinbarte Arbeitsleistung zu erbringen.
The employee is obligated to perform the agreed work.
worker / workforce
Arbeitskraft refers to a person's existing ability and energy to work. Arbeitsleistung, by contrast, means the work actually performed, including its quantity and quality. Thus, the distinction is between available capacity for work and its concrete result during a specific period.
Nach seiner Rückkehr erreicht der Mitarbeiter wieder seine frühere Arbeitsleistung.
After returning, the employee once again reached his previous level of work performance.
Nach seiner Genesung steht dem Mitarbeiter wieder seine volle Arbeitskraft zur Verfügung.
After recovering, the employee was back to full working capacity.
