The Government is taking action to coordinate our approach to ensure a just transition, which would allow offshore oil and gas workers to benefit from the economic opportunities from our transition to net zero, particularly in Scotland. As Britain becomes a clean energy superpower, the government is determined to create new high-quality jobs, working with business and trade unions, as we manage the transition.
