Functioning of the EU Labour Markets in the Perspective of Sustainable Development Paradigm

Summary/Abstract: The article presents the issues related to functioning of the labour market in the European Union, in the light of implementation of the climate policy, and especially the concept of the green economy and green jobs. The emphasis was put on principal determinants of green jobs, identification of which will let conduct more effective labour market policy. The impact of climate policy instruments on the labour market was also taken into consideration. The indicators presented in the paper may be used to assess the size and quality of employment, as well as the performance of government’s labour market policy. Implementation of the presented concepts of sustainable development, mainly related to the labour market, may help to increase the level of sustainability of not only the labour market, but also the entire EU economies. Development of specific labour market trends will affect the ability to increase employment in green sectors of the economy, and thus may contribute to reduction of unemployment, through a flexible adaptation to the situation in the labour market in the EU countries.
