En aldrende befolkning skaper problemer
En aldrende befolkning skaper store sosioøkonomiske utfordringer for europeiske land. Konsekvensene for veksten i sysselsettingen i perioden 2010 til 2060 er et viktig tema i denne rapporten, som er utgitt av EU-kommisjonen.
The paper focuses on what the demographic shift could mean for future employment growth over the period 2010-2060. The proposed methodology makes use of Eurostat's demographic projections (convergence scenario, Europop2010). It employs a set of assumptions related to future growth of the active population, building a high (maximum) and low (minimum) activity scenario. The paper then explores the potential of employment growth in the years ahead subject to these human resources constraints.
