Both workers and employers have spotted a crucial gap in the job market – when it comes to staff having the skills necessary to prepare for greener workplaces in the future.
Over half of business decision makers (55%) are keen to hire new staff who are conscious about climate change, with 57% considering specialised “green” skills as important to their business.
And 43% are prioritising their company's sustainability goals, even despite the cost-of-living crisis – with a third seeing this as an opportunity to future-proof their business.
