Summary:

This scholarly volume explores the intersection of labor law and environmental sustainability, focusing on the challenges and opportunities posed by the global transition to a green economy. It examines how labor law can be adapted to ensure a just transition for workers, emphasizing principles of justice, equity, and fairness. The book addresses key issues, including the creation of green jobs, the protection of existing jobs in fossil fuel-dependent sectors, and the role of trade unions, social cooperatives, and collective bargaining in shaping sustainable labor practices. Divided into two parts, it discusses the legal frameworks and challenges of ecological labor law and highlights the actions and contributions of various actors. Intended for academics, policymakers, and practitioners, this work underscores the importance of integrating labor rights with environmental goals to achieve a sustainable future. Generated by AI.
