Issue/Opportunity – Aging Workforce

• In Sault Ste. Marie, more than half of the labour force

(population 15 and over) is 40+.

• Based on the assumption that almost all of these

people will retire by the age of 65, this means that 42,735 of the people who are in the 40+ category are projected to exit the labour force over the next 20 years and be replaced by the 32,415 people who are under the age of 40.
