Abstract

Resource efficiency and circular economy policies aim at reducing resource intensity and use throughout the economy, thereby decreasing environmental impacts. Besides the environmental benefits expected from these policies, potential employment benefits are often emphasised, which would follow the anticipated structural changes in the economy from material-intensive to more labour-intensive activities. However, the size of the employment effect is still unclear and difficult to quantify. To date, the quantitative literature on the employment impacts of the circular economy is still scarce. This study is the first of its kind to review the available studies on this increasingly important policy issue.

向循环经济过渡对劳动力市场的影响:综述

资源效率和循环经济政策旨在降低整个经济中的资源强度和使用，从而减少对环境的影响。除了这些政策预期的环境效益外，还经常强调潜在的就业效益，这将伴随着预期的经济结构从物质密集型活动向劳动密集型活动的变化。然而，就业效应的大小仍然不清楚，难以量化。到目前为止，关于循环经济对就业影响的定量文献仍然很少。这项研究是第一次审查关于这一日益重要的政策问题的现有研究。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
