Highlights:

• Доля населения старше трудоспособного с каждым годом растет, что приводит к снижению доли занятых в регионе и соответственно является фактором снижения экономического роста.
• Люди пенсионного возраста являются носителями человеческого капитала, который может быть востребован на рынке труда
• Оценка человеческого капитала лиц старших возрастов позволяет сделать вывод о том, что около 50% нынешних пенсионеров могут и хотят продолжать трудовую деятельность. Институциональные преобразования могут увеличить их долю.
