Workforce Participants to Each Elderly Dependent (65+): Zimbabwe



The number of working people to each elderly dependent (65+) data for Zimbabwe provides a crucial perspective on demographic aging, quantifying the number of individuals of working age (15-64 years old) available to support each elderly person.

A low figure means those of working age, and the overall economy, face a greater burden in supporting the aging population.

The number of working people to each elderly dependent in Zimbabwe was 8.9 workers per elderly dependent in 2025, by 2050 this figure is estimated to be 6.4..
