Simulations conducted using microDEMS indicate that, even in the absence of the planned policy measures, the employment rate among woman aged 60 to 64 would nearly double, reaching 39.9 percent by 2030. Among men in this age group, an increase of 2.5 percentage points is projected, resulting in an employment rate of 48.1 percent. However, achieving the targeted 2.7 billion \u20ac in pension savings by 2030 would require substantially higher employment rates in this age cohort than those estimated in the simulation results. Achieving these savings thus depends on the consistent implementation of the proposed labour market policy measures.","onlinedate":"2025-08-18 09:00:00","lang":"German","publication_series":"","publication_date":"20250731","publication_date_year":"","publication_date_full":true,"publication_num_pages":"13","keywords":"[]","jelcodes":"[]","related_publications":"[]","pdf":437340,"zip":null,"link":"","monthly_report":true,"monthly_report_main":false,"monthly_report_volume":"","monthly_report_pages":"","monthly_report_pages_sort":"0","issue":"11","journal":"WIFO Research Briefs","publisher":"","invisible":false,"external":false,"embargo_date":"2025-08-18 09:00:00","types":[44390],"research_groups":[3510],"collaboration":"","persons":[3614,3684,3698],"persons_data":"[{\"personId\":3614,\"personName\":\"Thomas Horvath\",\"organisationNames\":[]},{\"personId\":3684,\"personName\":\"Helmut Mahringer\",\"organisationNames\":[]},{\"personId\":3698,\"personName\":\"Christine Mayrhuber\",\"organisationNames\":[]}]","clients":[429457],"subclients":[],"partners":[],"topics":[],"host_publication_title":"","host_publication_subtitle":"","place_of_publication":"","host_publication_editors":"[]","type_description":"","output_media":"","chapter":"","article_number":"","citations":"{\"apa\":\"
