New publication: "The Future of Labor in the Context of Greece’s Demographic Transition"

The Future of Labor in the Context of Greece’s Demographic Transition Greece is undergoing a major demographic shift, with low birth rates, an aging population, and persistent talent gaps and skill mismatches, while Labor shortages and skill mismatches are already evident. By 2050, over a third of the population will be over 65, putting pressure on the labor market, economic growth, and social protection systems.

This analysis reframes the discussion from the “Future of Work” to the “Future of Labor,” focusing on people and intergenerational fairness, while placing demographics at the heart of the policy debate. Family policies, childcare, inclusion of women and older workers, targeted upskilling, effective migration, and the smart use of AI are key to addressing these challenges. Coordinated, people-focused action across pensions, care, education, and jobs is essential.
