THE POST-COVID 19 DEVELOPMENT PERSPECTIVES OF EU LABOUR MARKETS THROUGH THE PRISM OF JUST TRANSITION

Abstract

The article focuses on the development trends of EU labor markets based on the Mechanism for a just transition. The author focuses on the analysis of: (1) the consequences of the energy transition on labor markets; (2) the opportunities versus challenges of labour supply and demand from a just transition perspective; (3) the types of non-correlation between supply and demand skills in the process of just transition; (4) the skills needed to increase employment through the just transition; (4) the EU Pact of Skills. The article conclusions are that the opportunities from the perspective of just transition are closely related to establishing concordances between the demand and supply of necessary skills, and the launch of the Pact for Skills will help companies across the energy value chain to prepare the necessary workforce, as well as to increase the productivity and the added value and focus on future development priorities.
