The transition to a low-carbon economy is reshaping the world of work. As industries adapt to meet the challenges of climate change and sustainable development, the “greening” of the economy will have profound implications. Analysing how this shift impacts jobs, reskilling efforts, innovation and public policy responses is essential to understanding the broader implications of this transition. The green transition leads to changing job demands and skill requirements across sectors. Extensive reskilling and upskilling of workers is necessary to meet the demands of emerging green jobs while addressing the needs of those in carbon-intensive sectors. Companies have to innovate not only in their products and services but also in their internal processes. Public policies play a crucial role, from funding workforce development programs to incentivizing green technologies and ensuring economic security for those affected. A Just Transition framework that prioritizes social inclusivity is vital to ensure no worker or community is left behind.
