Figure 3: Labour market development until the year 20307 broken down by gainfully employed persons, economically active population and potential labour force (see definitions)
07 Compared to other studies (e.g., Prognos 2011), this study included more recent figures, retirement at 67 and also currently unemployed persons in its analyses. The development of the activity rates is modelled differently in the examination of the potential labour force / the projections of the labour supply, particularly with regard to the effects of the step-wise raising of the statutory retirement age to 67 by the year 2029. Regarding the assumptions, see Fuchs et al. 2011; Kalinowski, Quinke 2010 and Drosdowski, Wolter 2010.
