Green jobs and just transition – UGC NET Question

Statements A, B and D are correct: green jobs span multiple sectors, a just transition protects workers and communities and skill development plus social protection are key tools. Statement C is incorrect because green jobs also exist in buildings, waste management, agriculture and more, not just renewables. Therefore, the combination A, B and D only is correct.

Option A:
Option A is incomplete because it omits D, which highlights the institutional mechanisms needed for a just transition. Without D, the framework appears less comprehensive.

Option B:
Option B is correct since it brings together definitional and policy aspects of green jobs and just transition, while excluding C, which unduly narrows the scope of green employment.

Option C:
Option C is incorrect as it includes C, which falsely limits green jobs to one sector; this contradicts broader definitions used in labour and environment literature.

Option D:
Option D is incorrect because it mixes A and D with C and omits B, thereby misrepresenting the social-justice orientation of a just transition.
