Working conditions in 'Green jobs': Women in the renewable energy sector
The paper explores the role of social dialogue and industrial relations in supporting the restructuring processes related to the implementation of EU climate change policies, turning them into a driver for the creation of new and better employment opportunities with a particular focus on improved female participation in the labour market. It provides policy recommendations on how social partners can contribute to making the renewable energy sector more accessible and more attractive to women. The measures include, among others, promoting education, training and skills development opportunities for women, as well as anticipating and forecasting of future skills needs.
