Abstract: Korea’s economy has grown rapidly and dramatically through an active industrial policy and the development of high-technology manufacturing and energy-intensive heavy industry. However, this model has had its limitations, resulting in a shift towards ‘green growth’ as a means of sparking innovation, job creation, improved energy security, and a quality of life.

The government estimated that an investment of USD 105 billion on green growth between 2009 and 2013 would lead to the creation of approximately 1.18 million jobs. To realize this potential impact on the labour market, a broad set of policy measures for green job creation, technological development, and vocational training were developed at various levels and sectors, covering individuals ranging from young students to professionals.
