• The objective of the research is to model and
forecast the demand of caregivers
• Factors affecting the demand:

• Increasing share of the elderly
•
• Old age dependency ratio (65+/20-64) appropriate for pension studies
• Super Old age dependency ratio (75+/20-74)
• Impact on the welfare cost and on the long term care needs of the elderly

The demand for care services will increase
and the demand of care givers in the public, private and
family sectors according to the type of welfare state model
prevailing in the economy will increase .
Demand of care givers will increase not only because the
elderly persons increase
but also becuase the domestic labour supply declines.

• Forecasts are sensitive to morbility
• If morbility improuves less caregivers
