NTF is an independent federation of the Nordic transport workers’ unions and is not formally affiliated to any other international trade union federation. Our member organisations, on the other hand, are members of both the ETF and the ITF. In this way, our members actively participate in international trade union work at a global as well as a European level.<\/p>\n
In addition, NTF coordinates the Nordic nominations to the ETF and ITF boards. The NTF Women’s Conference coordinates the prioritisation and nomination of the Nordic candidates for the European and global women’s Committees.<\/p>\n

The European Transport Workers’ Federation (ETF) is a pan-European trade union that includes transport unions from the EU, the European Economic Area and countries in Central and Eastern Europe.<\/p>\n
The ETF was founded in 1999, but has its roots in pan-European trade unions stretching back 60 years. Today, the ETF represents more than 5 million transport workers from more than 200 transport unions in 41 European countries. These workers are found in all parts of the transport industry \u2013 on land, at sea and in the air.<\/p>\n
ETF Constitution<\/strong><\/p>\n ETF conducts its work according to a principle of fair transport: quality jobs for transport workers and a safe, reliable and affordable service for users. As the ETF Constitution describes, the main purpose is to represent the social and economic interests of workers in transport (including logistics, fisheries and tourism).<\/p>\n All work promotes equal opportunities and the elimination of discrimination on the grounds of gender, age, ethnic origin, sexual orientation, disability or faith.<\/p>\n The ETF cooperates closely with the International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF) and the European Trade Union Confederation (ETUC).<\/p>\n
