Creation of MTWTUYouth

The MTWTU youth movement began in 2002, when the first steps were taken to involve young people in trade union life.

  1. New section in Collective Bargaining Agreements

    Some enterprises of the industry included a section on “Working with Youth” in their Collective Bargaining Agreements, which provided a basis for active support for young people.

  2. Rights and guarantees for youth

    This section provided for the expansion of rights and guarantees for working youth, including socio-economic protection, professional growth, decent wages, and the restoration of the mentorship institute.

MTWTUYouth

Promotes the improvement of youth policy and the modernization of the trade union movement in the maritime industry.

Representatives of the MTWTU Youth Council are members of youth associations of the International Transport Workers' Federation (ITF), the European Transport Workers' Federation (ETF), and the Federation of Trade Unions of Ukraine.
