Abstract

The research aims to analyze the labor force in Türkiye for 2023 using microdata. The subject has been addressed through three dimensions. The examination of income distribution in Türkiye, the analysis of the labor force using microdata, and the development of policy recommendations through an evaluation of the past and future of the labor force. Microdata were obtained from the Household Labor Force Survey of the Turkish Statistical Institute. As a result of the research, it was found that the increase in the elderly population in Türkiye recently could pose a threat to the active workforce, that 30.3% of workers in Türkiye are employed informally, and that 27% of workers are university graduates. Additionally, when the incomes of employees were examined by sector, it was found that the highest income-earning professional group was those in information and communication technology professionals, while the lowest income group was personal care service workers.
