Green jobs creation is the main element in the implementation of bioeconomy mechanisms along with other factors, such as gross domestic product (GDP), environmental protection and national security. The aim of this paper is to develop a profile of companies willing to create new jobs. Its...

This study investigates the disclosure levels of Romanians listed companies' pre and post the implementation of the European Directive 2014/95 (EUD) in order to explore the effects of the new regulation entered into force in January 2017, under the institutional lens. Moreover, the paper...
