Pursuing equality, fairness and safety for transport workers.
We are 16.5 million diverse workers – spanning every sector of the transport systems and all corners of the globe – wholly united in what we stand for: improving the lives of workers today... and tomorrow. As the world's leading transport authority and the collective voice of transport, we keep workers at the heart of the shifting world of work. By focussing on the big issues that affect the lives and livelihoods of all workers, we're working to tackle the challenges we face, and proactively shaping our future.
Our focus areas
HOW WE MAKE CHANGE
Union building
While the world of work may be constantly changing, ITF and the trade union movement will always fight to ensure workers are at its heart. We are the lifeblood of the global economy and the engine of economic employers. We have a significant contribution to make and will be a prominent voice at the table, shaping a future of work that is better for all workers.
Innovative campaigns
The ITF supports global transport unions to tackle the big issues facing workers today by providing the tools and support to mobilise and organise innovative campaigns to drive lasting change. By standing together and acting in solidarity we ensure our voice is heard, and that we take an active role in shaping our own future.
POLICY ADVOCACY
ITF keeps governments and employers accountable by advocating for – and contributing to – the development and adoption of forward-thinking policies and regulations that protect the rights and livelihoods of workers. ITF has an important role to play in connecting policymakers to the current struggles and lived realities of workers to help design better policies that can improve our collective futures.
