In order to achieve the aim of the work, a review of the literature on the subject was conducted and available statistical data was analyzed. The discussion and presented conclusions aim to show the scale of the phenomenon, directions of demographic changes as a result of which changes occur on the labor market. Attention was drawn to possible factors that may be helpful in overcoming difficulties on the labor market. Design/Methodology/Approach: In order to achieve the aim of the work, selected statistical data from the Central Statistical Office and Eurostat were analyzed. The structure of the article corresponds to the aim set in the article. At the beginning, the challenges facing the labor market in connection with the forecasted demographic changes were discussed. To achieve the specified aim, a critical analysis of the literature on the subject was used, as well as the desk research method and the induction method. The inference was based on the analysis of available statistical data, which were selected in a purposeful and intentional manner. Findings: The investigations contained in the work led to the formulation of conclusions that indicate threats to the labor market resulting from demographic predictions, as well as the complexity of non-demographic conditions that also determine the functioning of the labor market. Practical Implications: The results can be used in work on developing social policies, including labour market policies. Originality Value: This article presents the results of original desk research and induction methods. The topic is crucial in the era of such dynamic demographic changes and alarming forecasts in this area. Keywords: Labour market; population aging; demographic changes; elderly people.
