Transport Workers Union

About

We are the men and women who keep New South Wales moving. From humble beginnings on July 24th 1888 as the Sydney Trolley and Draymen’s Union, TWU NSW has grown to represent more than 30,000 members working every day in trucking, public transport and taxis, at our airports, on the waterfronts, in the waste and cash-in-transit industries, in distribution centres and associated workplaces. Across the industry, transport workers understand the power of standing together to achieve real change at their workplace and in their communities. Our members play a vital role in the fight for a fair day’s pay for a fair day’s work for all transport workers. Together, we fight to secure the best pay, conditions and safety standards for transport workers, and to keep our families and communities safe while on the move in Australia.
