| where is an aging population | Uk |
| why is the UK an aging population? | -increasing life expectancy because advance in medical care and standard of living. (1980-2006 rose 2.6 for W and 6.4 for M) -lots of births in 1940-60 (baby boom) meaning there is now lots of pensioners (pensioner boom.) |
| what are the Uk's problems of becoming an aging population? | -more elderly living in poverty as less economically active to support pensions. -tax higher to try and support pensions -health service under pressure as more elderly need care as average stay for an over 75 is 13 nights but whole of UK is 8 nights. |
| what are the management strategies the UK have? | -raise retirement age -increase immigration of young people to UK so there are more economically active paying tax.80% of EU immigrants were under 34 in 2004. -Encourage private pensions so people are less dependant on state pensions. -encourage births so there is working family tax as women and male go to work after child is born making it more affordable. |
| why do we not know if the management has worked? | it is too soon to say however it is a long process and is likely to be ongoing over many generations and will most likely work for a long time of their life. |
