New Zealand Tramways Union
- New Zealand Tramways Union
-
The New Zealand Tramways and Public Passenger Transport Employees Union was founded in 1903. It was founded to represent Tramway employees. The Tramways Union also represented Council bus drivers in the areas where these services ran in conjunction with Tram services. Since the 1950s and 60s Trams were replaced by both Trolley and Diesel buses and today this is who the New Zealand Tramways Union represent.
The Tramways Union has branches in Auckland, Wellington and Dunedin. The Tramways Union is affiliated to the Council of Trade Unions (CTU) and the Wellington branch has an affiliation with the Manufacturing and Construction Workers Union.
In 2008 Tramways Union members at GO Wellington were locked out, as were Auckland drivers employed by NZ Bus in 2009. In both cases the union came away with improved wages and conditions at the end of the industrial dispute.
