[en] In this chapter we propose a simple framework to compute a burden indicator to be used in the ageing sustainability debate. Relying on the projections of population as well as on the employment rate and the generosity of the systems, it offers the possibility to anticipate the main reforms to be accomplished in order to share the burden of the pay-as-you-go schemes between generations
