- Action Guide: How Employers Can Accelerate Inclusive Jobs in Green Transitions
Hidden Potential: Inclusive Jobs in the Green Transition highlights how shifts in technology, investment, and business models are creating new opportunities for economic growth and employment across developing economies and emerging markets. The move toward cleaner technology is driving demand for new skills and jobs, and countries that adopt inclusive approaches tend to see stronger growth and greater job creation. Businesses—employing 90 percent of the global workforce—play a pivotal role in opening these opportunities, anticipating future skill needs, and supporting women to move into emerging sectors that offer more stable, higher-quality jobs.
Unlocking this potential requires practical action. The accompanying Action Guide showcases real-life examples of how employers and investors are widening talent pools, adapting workplaces to be more resilient, and supporting women-led enterprises to strengthen their supply chains. Measures such as reskilling, training, and inclusive recruitment help firms meet rapidly rising skills demand in sectors like energy, construction, and transport, while enabling more women to access growing economic opportunities. With coordinated efforts from policymakers, businesses, and investors, these approaches can deliver job growth and more sustainable, resilient economies.
