About ITF Seafarers' Support
The International Transport Workers' Federation (ITF) is a global trade union federation representing transport workers' unions worldwide. With over 18 million transport workers from 147 countries, the ITF is recognized as a leading voice for workers in the industry. Any independent trade union with members in the transport sector is eligible for membership.
The ITF is committed to promoting respect for trade union and human rights, while working towards social justice, economic progress, and peace. It provides research and information services to its affiliates, assists transport workers in difficulty, and ensures that their interests are protected. The ITF also plays a crucial role in representing the interests of transport workers' unions in influential international bodies.
Headquartered in London, the ITF has offices in various locations worldwide, including Nairobi, Tokyo, New Delhi, and Brussels. Through its practical solidarity initiatives, the ITF supports transport unions in conflict, coordinating actions such as protests, demonstrations, and strikes. One of its notable campaigns focuses on combating Flags of Convenience (FOCs) used by ship owners to evade national laws and labor unions.
As a powerful force advocating for transport workers' rights, the ITF continues to shape the industry and champion fair labor practices globally.
