The National Treasury Employees Union (NTEU) is the largest independent federal employees union, representing 150,000 employees in 31 federal agencies and departments. Since 1938, NTEU’s mission has been to organize federal employees to work together to ensure that every federal employee is treated with dignity and respect. NTEU has a reputation as a powerful advocate for federal workers on Capitol Hill, in the courts, at the bargaining table, in the media and in the workplace. NTEU members are represented by an experienced and professional staff in Washington, D.C., seven field offices across the nation and highly trained, dedicated local leaders in their workplaces.
