Well it's pretty accepted across the board in economics. The relationship between productivity and wages is pretty much a core principle.
As for the efficient methods and equipment...that's generally how productivity increases. The industrial revolution was based on mechanization and led to a massive productivity increase...and led to higher wages as well.
Im sorry but thats not as binding as you think it is. Skills and abilities mean much more to wages than productivity does. Productivity lowers costs, it does not have as widespread an effect on wages as things like job sharing, job rotation and aquiring the new skills for maintaining all the new automation.
