Abstract

This paper discusses the role of social protection and labor (SPL) policies in complementing green transition policies by both mitigating the potential negative impacts of the transition on workers and low-income households and by enabling people to take advantage of emerging opportunities. The paper proposes a conceptual framework to assess how green transition policies influence people through changes in prices, production, and jobs. The paper reviews country case studies of SPL programs designed to protect people exposed to the potential negative impacts of the green transition, to prepare workers for green jobs and to promote environmentally sustainable livelihoods. Key factors of success in integrating SPL policies into green transition policies include effective institutional coordination, strong delivery systems, and integrated data systems.
