Green Job Vacancies Vacancies by County Survey data estimate 670 green job vacancies in the State of Hawai’i. With its significant job base relative to other counties, O‘ahu accounts for well over half of these green vacancies, followed by Hawai’i, Maui and Kaua‘i (Figure 7). Total green vacancies across counties represent about 1.5 percent of total unemployment in the State in the first quarter of 2010. Hawai‘i County reports the largest share of green job vacancies when compared to overall unemployment (Figure 8). Relative to other counties, Hawai‘i has the potential to employ a disproportionately larger share of its inactive workforce in green occupations. Figure 7. Green Job Vacancies by County Table 10.

Vacancies by Industry and Worksite Size When examining green job vacancies by NAICS industry, we find that over 74 percent are concentrated among three major industry groups: (1) Construction, (2) Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing, and Hunting, and (3) Professional, Scientific & Technical Services. O‘ahu and Maui counties held the most vacancies in Construction, while Hawai‘i and Kaua‘i reported likewise in Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing, and Hunting and Administrative & Support & Waste Figure 8.
