If large numbers of young male workers migrate into a country, what additional change may occur along with the local age structure?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Working-age share may increase

Young male workers are usually counted within the working-age population. When a large number of them migrate into a country, they add directly to that age group. As a result, the working-age share of the total population may increase, even if the child and elderly groups do not change immediately. Thus, option A is correct.

The effect depends on the number, ages, and duration of stay of the migrants, but the direction is clear when the inflow is large and concentrated among young adults. Their arrival does not make the child group immediately dominant, nor does it remove older people. Fertility may be influenced later by migrants’ family formation and social conditions, but it does not become completely unrelated to population structure. The question asks for a possible additional change, so an increase in working-age share is the best choice.
