WHAT WE DO

The Transport Workers' Union represents a diverse range of workers across the transport sector, including 3,500+ in South Australia and the Northern Territory, and almost 90,000 nationally. 

The Transport Workers’ Union is the largest collective voice for the men and women that keep Australia moving. Together, we lead the fight for a fairer transport industry and safety for all who share the roads and the skies. 
Throughout all states, across all sectors, we’re united in our fight to raise standards for all transport workers.

We’re fighting for the same pay for the same job. We’re holding wealthy clients and airports at the top of transport supply chains to account for fair rates and conditions. We’re determined to end the race to the bottom in transport and keep our communities safe while on the move in Australia.

AVIATION

BUS DRIVERS
