The burden of an aging population is affecting an increasing number of countries. Various trends in the world encourage a constant decline in fertility and affect the increase in the share of the elderly population. With constant innovations in both technology and medicine, human life is much better and longer today. Due to the improvement of the quality of life, we are learning about new opportunities and the importance of old people who, with certain measures, will be able to provide certain support to help increase the workforce. Until some changes take place and the working conditions for the elderly are met, the aging of the population is a huge problem. The impact of this negative trend has not bypassed developed countries either. Policies must focus on all individual segments in order to relieve their systems of constantly increasing their public spending due to excessive costs, increased due to the large burden of the elderly. Since this trend is still an unknown terrain for the world, the question is whether in the future, due to the long-term consequences it leaves, individual countries will be able to solve this problem at all. The population policies so far have not led to any improvement, although the population is the main focus due to its importance. Time should be given to develop a good population policy with technology that would ultimately lead to a long-term solution. It takes a lot of effort and commitment to influence the growth of young generations and thus have a positive effect on economic development.
