What Is A Green Collar Job?

A green collar job is typically classified as a job with a company providing environmentally responsible products and services. Alternatively, a focus on preventing pollution, reducing natural resource usage or promoting appreciation, protection and preservation of the environment.

In this time of transition to a greener economy and workplace, it can be a job with a green company or a department of a company e.g., a division set up to concentrate on the Companys’ green business strategies and planning.
