Answer:-

Working

The age-group, which contributes to the growth of the national income, is 15-59 (in some cases the upper limit is more), which is also called working age).

The working age population is defined as those aged 15 to 64. The basic indicator for employment is the proportion of the working age population aged 15-64 who are employed.

The age dependency ratio is the ratio of dependents (people younger than 15 or older than 64) to the working-age population.

This indicator is measured as a percentage of population.
