Green jobs mapping study in Malaysia: An overview based on initial desk research

This publication proposes a conceptual framework for the characterisation of green jobs in Malaysia and the selection of technical indicators in the environmental and labour fields to be used for this process. The report brings an initial estimation of direct green jobs at the country level as well as a review of the decent work challenges that may be linked to green jobs. The report provides information and statistical data to assess the economic and employment impacts of a green development strategy and provides information on the sectors which promote environmentally-friendly decent work. It includes policy recommendations for the government and social partners to identify entry points for further green job creation.
