There are three main age groups of usually resident population: under working age, of working age and over working age that are calculated in compliance with the working age and retirement age set by the legislation of the respective years.

Over the course of time, the main age groups of population changed, and age of males and females differed.

As of 2014, retirement age is gradually increasing; in 2025 retirement age of both males and females will constitute 65 years.
