When in 1919 he established the first workers' retirement, only 5% reached the age of 65 . A half-century, the largest may be 41% of the population.
When in the early twentieth century began to take shape in Spain the first system of social protection for workers retired (in 1919 he established the Social Security retirement known as workers) only 5% of the population was age 65 and very few survived more than two or three retirement age. The growth of life expectancy, sponsored by the extension of public health care increasingly skilled, has been unstoppable. Today, 95% of the population age 65 and older faces a lasting, according to statistics from 2008, lasts 20 years from retirement age (22.29 and 18.15 for women in Man, Galicia).
The growth of life expectancy is one indicator of health and welfare of the most used, but also one of the factors analysis in the last year have been placed in the forefront of debate review of the age pension and the pension system.

TENTH OF STATE LAND. In Galicia, life expectancy at birth has increased by just over eight years during the last three decades. The year that fell in Spain during Franco's dictatorship is also the first historical series of National Statistics Institute (INE) on life expectancy. In 1975 the theoretical horizon for the Galician population stood at 73.16 years, slightly below the indicator calculated for the whole of the English: 73.34. In more than three decades of democracy, hope Life has grown to 81.18 years in the community (81.24 for the whole state), according to latest figures published by the INE for 2008.
life expectancy of the Galician population is one tenth of the state territory. The communities of Madrid, Navarra and Castilla y León, the figures are higher, above 82 years. Ceuta and Melilla, both under 80, are the territories with a lower horizon, with a spread over three years of life compared to the longest-living community.
The differences between the sexes is a constant. Life expectancy of women Galician amounts to nearly two years estimated for the male population. In 1975, the first year of the series, calculated life span for women was 81.18 years and 79.30 for the other sex. In 2008 both had risen in parallel, keeping the difference, up to 84.66 and 82.90 years.
Galicians born today, regardless of the distinction between the sexes, they do reach the theoretical horizon of 81 years to comply. And this progression exponencialemnte has been increasing over time, will continue as all students. Thus, the proportion of elderly population will increase considerably in Galicia in the coming years and their weight will be charged in addition to the steady decline in the birthrate.
IGE PROJECTION . In this sense, the latest population projection by the National Institute of Statistics (GSE) developed to measure shows of this century (specifically for the year 2051) estimated that over 65 Galician represent 31 percent of the total population of the community, having regard to the most favorable scenario. If the worst factors converge to favor the scenario of growing older, the proportion of retirees reach 41% of the total population.
In general, the aging process is being felt in Galicia from the late nineteenth century, but for decades was a rather slow phenomenon. It really is from the 60s and 70s when the pace of population growth and life expectancy at birth has increased more rapidly, as he recalled the Human Xeografía professor the University of Santiago Julio Hernández Borge. This acceleration of the aging of the last thirty years has been motivated, in general, by improving the living conditions of the population, health discoveries, vaccines, and control of food and housing characteristics.
