Working Age Population
The share of working age population in the overall population in Turkey has started to
increase significantly. This stands out as a very critical advantage when compared to the
demographic trends of Europe.
This ratio is at a decreasing trend for the EU countries, while it’s rising in Turkey. Ratios of
both EU and Turkey will be equal in 2010, and then Turkey will overtake Europe.
