Green Jobs
Create safe work in energy, water, waste, mobility and restoration.
Define the economic failure without reducing people to a count.
Green labels can hide unsafe informal work, temporary installation jobs or environmental claims without evidence.
Create safe work in energy, water, waste, mobility and restoration. must be tested through actual worker and firm outcomes, not announcements, registrations, certificates, sanctioned posts or gross investment alone.
Record state, district, city/block, village/ward or industrial cluster; date and reference period; worker/firm group; occupation and sector; work status, hours, earnings or business stage as relevant; source/method; and uncertainty. Do not infer street-level conditions from a national survey estimate.
Test demand, capability, access and business conditions together.

Protect livelihoods
Contain urgent wage, safety, cash-flow, closure or exclusion risks while longer changes are designed.
Connect the pathway
Join capability, infrastructure, finance, institutions and paying demand around the worker or firm journey.
Pilot
Build one occupation pathway from demand and competency to safe paid work and environmental outcome.

Protect now, test the economic mechanism and build durable capability.
Diagnose & protect
Verify the worker/firm journey, immediate loss, market reality, responsible actor and fastest safe correction.
Pilot & measure
Build one occupation pathway from demand and competency to safe paid work and environmental outcome.

Result status: Baseline pending, active measurement, insufficient evidence, improved, mixed, no improvement, displacement or harmful. Publish gross and net effects separately.
