<![CDATA[‘Just transitions’ is an approach to transitioning an economy that depends on fossil energy and environmentally damaging sectors towards a green economy that is environmentally friendly, sustainable, and based on renewable energy. The approach aims to ensure that the economic transition process is carried out fairly without violating the rights of vulnerable communities. So far, labour law and environmental law are running separately, even though they have the same leading actors, namely entrepreneurs (employers) and their companies. The labour law has a strategic position to support the energy transition in the green economy era while protecting workers as vulnerable parties. The labour law can provide for the following provisions: 1) training and re-training for workers whose sectors are affected during the transition period; 2) occupational safety and health management that is integrated with environmental damage protection and workers health; 3) maximizing the use of mandatory employment reporting mechanisms to ensure employer compliance in environmental protection and workers' rights; and 4) the involvement of trade unions in various movements for the planning and implementation of transition policies.]]>
