In Orkney, out of all those aged 16+ years (18,448), 11,268 people are economically active - this number excludes students who may also be in employment. The information from Scotland's Census 2022 also records that 6,840 people are economically inactive. This means that they are not in paid employment. Of those who have retired, there are 5,001 who are economically inactive.
