What is the number of Indonesia's working-age population?

According to the 2015 Intercensal Population Census (Supas 2015), Indonesia's population will reach 269.6 million in 2020. This comprises 66.07 million in the non-productive age group (0-14 years), 185.34 million in the productive age group (15-64 years), and 18.2 million in the unproductive age group (65+ years). Indonesia's population is projected to continue growing to 318.96 million by 2045.

Based on this data, Indonesia will experience a demographic bonus until 2045. This is characterized by a larger productive-age population compared to the unproductive population (both non-productive and unproductive age groups). In 2020, the productive-age population will account for 68.75% of the total population. This abundance of productive-age human resources should be leveraged through improvements in quality, both in education and skills, to prepare for the era of Industry 4.0.

With a larger productive-age population, Indonesia's dependency ratio is 45.46. This means that for every 100 people of productive age, there are 46 dependents in the unproductive age group.
