Answer:

An aging population causes a shortage of workers because people are retiring at a rate faster than people are entering the workforce. This is especially apparent in corporate positions where young workers aren't experienced to fill in those jobs. An aging population is also burdening on the healthcare system where an older population is more inclined to develop chronic health problems. People are also choosing to marry later in their life, making it hard to have multiple children or even being able to conceive.

Explanation:

Answer:

Much of the population in Singapore is older. As many of the workers grow old, they decide that it is time to retire. Because many of them never had kids, the workforce is not replenished after the loss of the older, retired workers. The rate of retirement is much faster than the rate of employment. This causes a shortage in workers.
