Partners – Единство. Труд. Защита

Without trade unions, today’s world would be a very different place.

Many of the working and living conditions that we take for granted are the fruit of hard work by the unions – and it is important for us to protect and expand them. To be able to do so, we need a solid foundation of membership – and that’s where you come in!

UNITED WE ARE STRONGER!

The Marine Transport Workers’ Trade Union of Ukraine is a national trade union uniting more than 78,000 members: seafarers, workers of ports, ship repair plants and enterprises of State Hydrography, professors, cadets and students of maritime educational institutions.

What we do?
