Sustainable jobs and projects
Green Jobs in Austria

More and more companies are recognising the need to integrate sustainable practices into their processes. Not only to have a positive impact on the environment and society, but also to be successful in the long term. Sustainability is not just a question of goodwill, but a key factor in mastering the challenges of the 21st century. Statistics on green jobs in Austria show the extent to which the topic has already arrived in companies. While 174,206 people were employed in the environmental economy in 2008, this figure had already risen to 204,200 by 2021 [source: bmk.gv.at].

If you are looking for a professional challenge in the field of sustainability, you are on the threshold of numerous exciting opportunities with Hays. We have an extensive network of companies that are committed to these values. Send us your application and we'll put you in touch with employers who want to work with you towards a more sustainable future.

GREEN JOBS DEFINITION

What are green jobs anyway? Green jobs reduce the ecological footprint, protect the environment, increase energy efficiency or promote renewable resources. They can be found in traditional sectors such as energy production and construction, which are increasingly turning to sustainable practices, as well as in new industries that specifically focus on environmental protection, renewable energy and sustainability. Green jobs aim to promote a sustainable economy that combines economic progress with environmental and social benefits.
