What could be the possible result of 'Demographic Dividend'? |
An increase in the proportion of non-workers relative to workers in the population. Higher the 'dependency ratio', higher the dividend. An increase in the proportion of workers relative to non-workers in the population. Higher employment opportunity for people. |
An increase in the proportion of workers relative to non-workers in the population. |
The correct answer is Option (3) → An increase in the proportion of workers relative to non-workers in the population. Demographic dividend refers to the economic advantage that comes when the working-age population is larger compared to dependents. This means there are more workers relative to non-workers, which can lead to greater productivity and growth if employment opportunities are available. |
