Resumen
This paper on Political Economic and Labour Economic Policies in the European Green
Deal framework analyses the Recovery Plan and Resilience Facility. It pays attention to the effects
on the design of new green jobs and the necessary skills to develop this type of new positions generated,
with higher labour wellbeing. The paper is focused on the analysis of the green jobs’ opportunity
for Europe, at a country level, with a specific analysis made for the Spanish case. A systematisation
of the concepts and calculations on the issue is made and analysed (attending the international
institutions and forums proposals) to harmonise the recovery plans, apply them beyond the
energy sector to other related green activities and align the public and private sector, and other
critical stakeholders, in achieving this goal. The following research questions were formulated: (1)
what is the estimated number of new green jobs that would be created as a consequence of the
implementation of the Recovery Plan in Spain; (2) which new soft skills or re‐skilling would be
necessary to develop such new green jobs; (3) how much are the new jobs aligned with wellbeing
economics? The research was conducted by applying a few research methods, i.e., secondary
sources, the desk research method and the exploration method, critical and comparative analysis,
inductive and deductive reasoning and some mathematical calculations. The research contribution
can provide a valuable source of information to coordinate sectoral plans by the policymakers, particularly
those responsible for the economy, business, green activities and education.
