Long-term labour force projections for the 25 EU Member States: A set of data for assessing the economic impact of ageing

This paper presents the methodology and results of labour force projections over the long term (until 2050) for each of the 25 EU Member States. These projections were undertaken in order to provide the background technical inputs for the assessment of the potential economic and fiscal impact of an ageing population. This assessment is carried out in the framework of the EU Economic Policy Committee’s Ageing Working Group by projecting public expenditure on pensions, health care, long-term care, unemployment insurance and education.
