4. POPULATION IN SOME COUNTRIES IS RAPIDLY AGEING
Problem Most Pronounced in the Developed World
Median age of population in the OECD countries is rising ... ...this will have several socio-economic implications
(select examples)
Median age (year)
(Average for OECD countries)
Shortage in workforce
Potential decline in growth rates
Increase in wage rates for workers

Note: Potential workforce surplus is calculated keeping the ratio of working population (age group 15 – 59) to total population constant and under the assumption
that this ratio needs to be broadly constant to support economic growth. Therefore, India will have 47 Million more people in the working age group/total
population by 2020 compared to today, while France will have a deficit of 3 Million people in the working age group compared to today.
