Women’s Committee

The ETF Women’s Committee was created in May 2001 in Zagreb, by a decision of the 1st ETF Ordinary Congress. It is an ETF policymaking body.

On the occasion of ETF’s 6th Congress, the ETF Women’s Committee underwent a number of changes to broaden the basis for more engagement from ETF’s members: the establishment of an ETF Women’s Steering Committee, and the opening of the ETF Women’s Committee to all affiliated unions declaring women’s membership.

The ETF Women’s Committee now consists of women representatives from all ETF affiliated unions declaring women membership, meaning each affiliated union declaring women membership shall have the right to participate in the work of the Women’s Committee.

The ETF Women’s Steering Committee consists of

• The Chair of the ETF Women’s Committee elected by the Conference;
• 8 (eight) ordinary members elected by the Conference – among these 8 members are two Vice-Chairwomen to be elected at the first meeting after the Conference
• One woman representative from each ETF Section, elected by the respective Sections and one woman representative from the Youth Committee, elected by the Youth Conference.

The 8 ordinary members of the ETF Women’s Steering Committee and the Chair of the ETF Women’s Committee will represent women transport workers in the ETF Executive Committee as members of the ETF Executive Committee.

The ETF Women’s Committee Chair is an ex-officio member of the  ETF Management Committee, representing the Women’s Committee in this governing body.

See below the composition of the ETF Women’s Committee 2022-2027 and the allocation of these functions amongst the current ETF Women’s Committee members.
