To get the labor market moving again, it must become more attractive for people to work more, said Kim Putters, chairman of the Social and Economic Council.

According to Putters, we leave a labor potential unused, such as the elderly and people with disabilities who do not work.

The chairman argued that if people think public services such as good quality care and education are important, "we should all be willing to do something about it."

That means we're going to have to work a little bit harder in the future. If we want to maintain the level of prosperity in our country, we should also all make an effort.
