No. Workers to Each Elderly Dependent (65+): Kuwait


The number of people of working-age to each elderly dependent (65+) data for Kuwait 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 workers to each elderly dependent in Kuwait was 24.8 workers per elderly dependent in 2025, by 2050 this figure is estimated to be 11.1..
