Closed Create a fund to retrain workers in high-carbon industries

Closed on

The Government should put in place funding to retrain workers in high-carbon industries, many of whom have lost their jobs during the Covid-19 pandemic, with skills that can support a green recovery.

Retraining workers in these industries would both support workers who may have lost their jobs to find new employment, and could help support a green recovery, by training them in new skills that could be deployed in other industries, such as renewables.
