The authors of the article define the leading guidelines of the national policy in the field of green employment in addition to the traditional areas of employment policy (reducing unemployment, promoting self-employment, etc.) areas associated with reducing the negative impact on the environment. A list of green professions by types of economic activity has been developed, as well as key economic activities for the creation of green jobs have been identified.
