Conditions of green jobs market development based on the example of businesses processing biomass for energy purposes

Summary/Abstract: Green labour market is consistent with sustainable development and at the same time provides an opportunity for economic development of rural areas. The aim of the paper was to identify determinant factors affecting the development of green labour market, taking businesses processing biomass for energetic purposes as examples. The subjects of the analysis were the results obtained from telephone interviews (CATI) from 29 companies processing biomass for energy purposes in Warmińsko-Mazurskie province. The study has shown limited employment opportunities in the analysed sector. The main factor stimulating the creation of new green jobs is an increase in the profitability of the production of biomass for energy purposes. Moreover, low ecological awareness and current hiring policy are a serious barrier to the development of green economy.
