“A Just Transition for Workers”
The Just Transition Commission will host a roundtable
event for workers on 4 October 2024 9:45 – 11:15 at
Aberdeen University Science Hub
This invitation has previously been circulated via trade
unions.
This roundtable will be focussed on workers from the
oil and gas sector and invites you to discuss some of
the most prominent issues and priorities, including (but
not limited to):
• What are the best ways to measure if the transition
is fair or not for workers?
• There has been lots of engagement on just
transition, but there has been little action, what are
the critical barriers and how can they be overcome?
• What more is needed from policy and from industry
to support oil and gas workers to transition to new
employment? What terms and conditions would
workers need to see? What more is needed on the
skills passport? What is the relative role of industry
versus policy?
• How to best enable positive outcomes and develop
positive concrete actions?

justtransitioncommission@gov.scot
Following the visit, the Commission will publish a policy
briefing with advice to government.
