Abstract

Diplomski rad govori o nastanku zelenih poslova na tržištu rada Europske unije te pobliže objašnjava politike koje se provode u cilju ostvarivanja tranzicije u zeleno gospodarstvo. Započinje analizom tržišta rada u EU u razdoblju velike gospodarske financijske krize koja se pojavila 2008. godine te se rezultati uspoređuju sa kretanjem zaposlenosti neposredno prije pojave krize koju je prouzrokovao COVID-19. U radu se prikazuje utjecaj klimatskih promjena na tržište rada i provođenje zelenih politika u cilju stvaranja zelenih radnih mjesta. Prikazuju se i pobliže pojašnjavaju Agenda 2030 za održivi rast i razvoj te Agenda za nove vještine i poslove kojima se ostvaruje nastanak zelenih radnih mjesta. Nadalje se definiraju zelena radna mjesta i zelene vještine te uloga zelenih radnih mjesta kao čimbenik održivog razvoja. U radu se analizira i problematika mjerenja zelenih radnih mjesta te se analizom podataka s Eurostata uspoređuju postavljeni ciljevi s ostvarenim rezultatima. Uspoređuje se zaposlenost sektora ekoloških dobara i usluga EU i Hrvatske te se analizira zaposlenost u ostalim zemljama članicama EU. Prikazom utjecaja tranzicije gospodarstva na određene sektore se analizira zaposlenost u istima prije pojave krize uzrokovane COVID-19 virusom. Na kraju rada se prikazuje provođenje politika u cilju stvaranja zelenih radnih mjesta i ozelenjavanja gospodarstva na primjeru zemlje članice EU, Malte. Analiziraju se ukupna zaposlenost i zaposlenost u sektoru ekoloških dobara i usluga Malte te se uz pojašnjenje inovacija i vodeće uloge Malte u tehnološkim inovacijama predviđa rast gospodarstva usprkos Korona krizi.

The thesis discusses the emergence of green jobs in the EU labor market and explains in more detail the policies implemented in order to achieve the transition to a green economy. It begins with an analysis of the EU labor market in the period of the great economic and financial crisis that emerged in 2008, and compares the results with employment trends just before the crisis caused by COVID-19. The paper presents the impact of climate change on the labor market and the implementation of green policies in order to create green jobs. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Growth and Development and the Agenda for New Skills and Jobs Achieving Green Jobs are presented and explained in more detail. Furthermore, green jobs and green skills are defined, as well as the role of green jobs as a factor of sustainable development. The paper also analyzes the issue of measuring green jobs and compares the set goals with the achieved results by analyzing data from Eurostat. The employment of the environmental goods and services sectors of the EU and Croatia is compared and the employment in other EU member states is analyzed. By showing the impact of the transition of the economy on certain sectors, employment in sectors before the crisis caused by the COVID-19 virus is analyzed. At the end of the paper, the implementation of policies aimed at creating green jobs and greening the economy is presented on the example of the EU member state, Malta. The total employment and employment in the environmental goods and services sector of Malta are analyzed, and with the explanation of innovation and the leading role of Malta in technological innovation, economic growth is predicted despite the Corona crisis.
