I en ny artikel fortæller Bloomberg, at der frem mod 2030 kan skabes op til 24 mio. ’grønne’ jobs globalt. Ifølge Bloomberg var der i det seneste år flere ansatte i virksomheder, der arbejder med vedvarende energi, end i virksomheder, der arbejder med fossilebrændstoffer. Denne tendens er drevet af stigende antal kandidater, som ønsker at arbejde for grønne arbejdsgivere:
”A 2022 survey of 10,000 energy professionals by the Global Energy Talent Index found that 21% of the renewables workforce joined from another sector in the last 18 months. Nearly a third of those came from the oil and gas industry. It also found that 82% of respondents would consider switching to another energy sector in the next three years, and half of those favor a move into renewables.”
Og fremtiden er lys, 51 % af studerende vil takke ja til mindre løn for at arbejde i en ansvarlig virksomhed, siger Bloomberg:
”Many job seekers are now looking to work in companies aligned with climate goals. A 2021 Yale School of Management survey of 2,000 students across 29 business schools globally found that 51% would accept lower salaries to work for an environmentally responsible company. That’s a good sign, because filling the labor gap will require both new skills and people leaving their existing jobs for new and rapidly evolving industries. A reckoning is needed across the workforce, and there are some signs it’s already underway.”
