Summary/Abstract: TOTAL LABOR FORCE. In the sixteen-year period (1952—1968) here under survey, the number of those employed in the socialist and private sectors in Yugoslavia increased by 1,853,000 and was in 1968 double the figure recorded in 1952. The annual growth of employment in that period averaged 116,000 or 4.7 per cent. In the same period, Yugoslavia’s total population rose by 3,356,000, or at an average annual rate of 210,000 or 1.3 per cent. Whereas, despite a lower growth rate, the total population had a higher annual increment than the total labor force, the population of the working age had in the same period a much smaller annual increment and a much lower growth rate than total employment, viz. it grew at an average annual rate of about 86,000, or of only 1.0 per cent.
