Singapore’s working-age population percentage rose from 72.8% in 1990, reaching a high of 78.5% by 2010. After 2010, however, the percentage gradually declined to 73.0% by 2022.

With a highly skilled but aging workforce, Singapore faces the challenge of maintaining labor force productivity and developing policies to attract younger workers and support an aging population.
