Summary/Abstract: Sustainable development today is one of the most important topics in industrial societies, but also in those less developed countries. Sustainable development is particularly important in ecology and geography in terms of environmental protection and conservation of natural resources, then in biology in the context of the survival of life and human species on Earth. In economics, sustainable development refers to the rational use of natural resources in the process of creating sustainable economic (industrial) development and the potential of creating new jobs: employment and human resource management. Such jobs are called green jobs. In addition, it is considered in economics from the point of view of sustainable development in tourism, as technological development in industries, sustainable development in agricultural economics and application of agro-technical measures, in investment policy and international economy. The common and accepted concept of sustainable development is divided into three basic dimensions: environmental, economic and socially sustainable, comprising the seventeen development goals defined by the United Nations. In this paper, sustainable development will be considered from the point of view of human resource management and job creation in “green economy”. The aim of the paper is to emphasize in which industrial sectors and in what ways green jobs are created in a national economy. Green economy leads to changes within the economic sector. Long-term strategies are needed that bring together goals, energy, environment, education and skills development, policies and responsible ministries. Sustainable development is monitored at national and international levels and at the level of companies and consulting organizations.
