Key Takeaways

In Belgium, the working-age population showed a gradual decline from 66.9% in 1990 to 63.7% in 2022. The percentage slightly rebounded in the mid-2000s, reaching 66.0% by 2008, partially due to immigration and labor reforms. However, from 2010 onward, the working-age demographic steadily fell due to population aging and lower birth rates, with the share dropping to 63.7% by 2022, underscoring Belgium's demographic aging trend.
