In the next ten years, the Russian economy will lose more than a million Russians. The Deputy Prime Minister of Russia announced the reduction in the number of employed citizens at the forum “The Future of Labor in Russia”.

“There will be a washout of the most active age group on the labor market – citizens from 30 to 44 years old, which is more than 6 million people. Meanwhile, the share of employed people aged 45 and over will grow, which in turn will lead to an increase in the average age of a employed citizen,” Golikova predicted.
