Taiwan faces a significant shortage of "green collar" workers, with nearly 30,000 positions unfilled, a 278% increase in eight years. This surge is driven by global net-zero transitions, leading to high salaries, with some green collar professionals earning over NT$2 million annually. The Ministry of Environment will launch new training courses next year. The demand for green talent is particularly high in the electronics, software, and semiconductor industries. The Ministry of Environment plans to collaborate with other agencies to develop industry-aligned net-zero training programs.
