Recommendation 5
5
Accelerate initiatives promoting clean energy and retrofit careers for under-represented groups and new workforce entrants.
Recommendation
The Government should continue to develop and launch further initiatives to promote clean energy and retrofit careers among under-represented groups and those outside the existing workforce; the actions set out in the Post-16 Education and Skills White Paper should be accelerated to bring down the barriers to new entrants from these groups taking up such roles in time to have a meaningful impact on the goals for clean energy and retrofit. (Recommendation, Paragraph 33)
