These are occupations where employment demand will increase due to green economy activities.  The impact does not entail significant changes in the work and worker requirements of the occupation. The work context may change, but the tasks themselves do not.  Examples include electricians, carpenters, chemists, and architectural drafters.

• These are occupations where the work or work requirements (such as credentials) may be changed due to green economy activities.  The impact of green economy activities and technologies results in a significant change to the work and worker requirements of an existing occupation, e.g., affecting the governments "O*NET-SOC" occupational classifications used in tracking and funding.  The essential purposes of the original occupation remain the same, but tasks, skills, knowledge, and external elements, such as credentials, have been altered. Job changes may result in an increase in employment demand for the occupation.

• In these occupations, green economy activities and technologies are sufficient to create the need for unique work and worker requirements, which results in the generation of a new occupation relative even to O*NET taxonomy. This new occupation could be entirely novel or “born” from an existing occupation.
