📄 Abstract（原文）
Abstract In light of growing automation, digital transformation, this study examines job polarization in the solar power industry in Karnataka, India. The study employs Spearman’s rho correlation and descriptive statistics to investigate how 397 individuals, including managers and employees from major solar power companies, perceive changes in their workforce. The results show a sharp decline in middle-skilled, routine jobs and an increasing demand for highly qualified individuals with digital skills. Automation has increased productivity but has also raised concerns about job displacement. Although digital transformation has been shown to improve performance and collaboration, it presents difficulties for mid-skilled workers who lack technical adaptability. To address labor market changes in the renewable energy industry, the study emphasizes the need for targeted skill development, inclusive workforce policies, and flexible organizational strategies. These strategies are crucial for policymakers, business executives, and academics aiming to align green energy transition with equitable and sustainable employment outcomes. The findings offer crucial insights.
