The projected size of the workforce will rise from 29 million in 2017 to about 50 million in 2052.
The study assumed that the rate of male participation in the age group "10-14 years" in the workforce for the base year 2017 remained stable at 2.5% and females at 0.4% until the end of the projection period for both males and females, and also that the rate of male participation in the age group 15-64 remains constant.
