Join our struggle

As a union member you can take part in the struggle for fairness at work along with some 50.000 colleagues.

NTL is a trade union with some 50,000 members, many of whom are employed in the state sector. We also have members in a number of other public sector enterprises. All ­staff at these workplaces are eligible for membership of NTL, irrespective of educational background and position. NTL also has special membership terms for students at university colleges and universities.

 

Get in touch
We would love to get in touch with you! Contact your local NTL rep (if you don't know who it is you might find your local rep here) or the national headquarters at post@ntl.no. If you are looking for a specific officer at the national HQ, you find a list of individual contact information here.

 

What we do
NTL’s goals include bringing about quality-driven improvements in public administration and state enterprises. We also work for improvements in personnel policy and for greater opportunities for professional development. NTL’s aim is a pay policy based on the principle of solidarity, which also safeguards the interests of employees with higher education.

 

Pay negotiation

NTL’s main position is that pay should be negotiated collectively with strike action being the ultimate response to conflict resolution, and therefore NTL generally argues for nationwide negotiations covering all employees in the sector.

Our aim is to ensure that you feel that you work in a secure job in a good working environment. We ­believe that you should have a salary that you can live on and working hours that you can live with.
