A Tale of Two Transitions: Labor Market Adjustments to The Green Transition and Technological Change Leiden University, the Netherlands This paper investigates the impact of two significant ongoing transitions on labor market dynamics: the green transition and automation. Our analysis consists of three parts. First, we use a descriptive approach to map transition-related patterns and trends. Second, we identify individual and occupational drivers of transition-related job switches. Finally, we use an event-study approach to study the consequences for worker-level labor market outcomes of these job switches. Our analysis draws on European Labor Force Survey data and on Dutch administrative data spanning from 2003 to 2023. On an individual level, green and low-automation-risk jobs attract higher-educated, younger, male workers, while, at an occupational level, skill gaps and geographic concentration hinder transition-related mobility. Controlling for individual characteristics, we find that transitions to green jobs yield stronger and more persistent wage gains (4% vs. 3%) than to low-automation-risk jobs, while wage losses after leaving brown jobs (9%) are larger and longer-lasting than those after exiting high-automation-risk jobs (6%) | |
