Introduction of NWJ

NWJ is a trade union organizing workers in NTT group companies. Its official name is All NTT Workers Union of Japan. After the war in 1946, telecom workers, together with postal workers who were both under Ministry of Posts and Communication, organized trade union as “Zenteishin workers union”. In 1949, workers in Ministry of Posts and Communications were divided into “Ministry of Telecommunications” and “Ministry of Postal Services”. This is our start of the movement as ZENDENTSU or Japan Telecommunications Workers’ Union.

In order to respond NTT restructuring and build new organization scheme focusing on 21st century, we worked on fundamental organizational reform and restarted our union movement as NWJ (All NTT Workers Union of JAPAN) on December 1st in 1998.

NWJ has a total membership of about 169,000 of various types of business and forms of work, including Telecommunications and Information Service Industry. We aspire to work for securing workers’ employment, improving working conditions, building a prosperous with a pride, as a telecommunication carrier through the sound development of information and communication industries and work for peace, human rights and environmental issues and realizing free and equitable society for the coming generation with the spirit of coexistence and symbiosis across the globe.
