Episode 6: The Job Market and Green Skills

For our sixth episode we talk about the recent news regarding job market recovery and what this means for the younger generation who around the world have suffered disproportionately higher levels of unemployment and the green skills initiative that the UK government is implementing. 

 

On this episode our panellists discuss the long term effects the pandemic may have in the younger generation ranging from unemployment to adapting to a digital office environment and the challenges this represents and what employers can do to minimize the impact.  

 

We also focus on green skills and the challenges there are to implementing them. One of the issues mentioned is the difficulty in attracting diverse backgrounds to develop green skills so that every job can become greener.
