Median Age of Resident Labour Force by Sex
Description
Ministry of Manpower CSV of the median age of Singapore’s resident labour force by sex from 1991 through 2025, from the Comprehensive Labour Force Survey (mid-year). Gaps occur in 1995, 2000, and 2005 when census or GHS fieldwork replaced the survey; 2007 figures are population-adjusted. Labour demographers track workforce ageing by sex.
Official description
1. Data are for mid-year. 2. Residents refer to Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents. 3. Data for 1995, 2000 and 2005 are not available as the Comprehensive Labour Force Survey was not conducted in these years due to the conduct of the Population Census 2000 and General Household Surveys 1995 and 2005 by the Singapore Department of Statistics. 4. 2007 data have been adjusted based on latest revised population estimates from the Singapore Department of Statistics to facilitate comparisons with 2008 onwards.
