The employment rate among the active population (between 20 and 64 years old) increased last year to 72.1 percent, the Belgian statistics agency Statbel said on Wednesday. This is more than the 71.9 percent employment rate in 2022. In absolute figures, this amounts to 4,879,000 workers in 2023. But to achieve the target of an 80 percent employment rate in 2030, approximately 550,000 more workers will need to be added. , Statbel warns.
