UK political briefing: ‘Our Power: Offshore workers’ demands for a just energy transition’
Demands 1-4 cover some of the nuts and bolts of transition planning: how we utilise skills that already exist in the workforce, skill-up where necessary, create new jobs and open up pathways for existing workers to move across.
Demands 5-7 focus on the working conditions in the North Sea, and what needs to change in the employment rights of workers and the legislation that governs the energy workforce.
Demands 8-10 offer the vision for an energy industry that is owned by, answerable to, and beneficial for the people working in and relying on it.
Our Power’s methodology and lessons learned briefing is a guide for other organisations who are interested in learning how we spoke with offshore oil and gas workers and what it might look like to replicate the process with a different workforce or in a different region.
There is an urgent need for both regional and sectoral just transition planning to ensure the workforce and community are supported through the changes which must come to meet our climate objectives.
First Minister candidates are urged to speed progress towards a fair and fast energy transition for workers and communities
