Chris Warhurst, Jamelia Harris and Jeisson Cardenas Rubio of IER along with Strathclyde University colleague Pauline Anderson have published an article in a special issue of the European Journal of Workplace Innovation. The article is titled ‘A Just Transition? Green jobs, good jobs and labour market inclusivity in Scotland’.

Using data from Scotland it presents mixed findings. First, there are few new green jobs but a strong greening of existing jobs. Second, while green jobs offer higher wages, they tend to be dominated by male workers. The study outlines the policy implications of these findings for creating inclusive green jobs.
