Description The growing share of the retired population in Europe worsens the balance of thesocial costs as social consensus in most European countries rests on extensivesocial transfers for this population group. With its 25% share in GDP and 50% sharein social transfers, the European (continental) model is indeed not sustainablewhen compared globally. The current prevailing model of “rejuvenation" of thelabour market through immigration did not prove as a sustainable solution. Thesame is valid for the perspective of fast technological change. It is based onfilling the labour market with low-paid jobs enabling host economies to leaveaside the imperative permanent change in the labour market structure. This paperdiscusses the case of Slovenia and tries to search the reasons for the absenceof elderly population in the labour market in this country. Based on the datacomparison and disposable studies, authors try to identify the main issues whenendeavouring to keep elderly population in the labour market.
