Rail and Maritime Transport Union

The Rail and Maritime Transport Union (RMTU) is a trade union representing workers in New Zealand who operate trains, ships, and related transport services. Its role is to advocate for members’ rights, negotiate working conditions, wages, and safety standards, and ensure fair treatment in the workplace. The union also provides support during disputes and promotes improvements in the transportation industry. Essentially, the RMTU acts as a collective voice for transport workers, helping them work under fair policies and ensuring safe, efficient operations across rail and maritime sectors.
