Approximately 330,000 numbers of people have belonged to a union in New Zealand and 51.5% of those are women. The employees can select their union leader, or vote for their leader from candidates. If they are not happy with their boss, they can’t just go on a strike. The better way is gives a reasonable notice to their boss through Union.

The Union can provide equal opportunity for both men and women. Most of all, the Union can provides much stronger voice for all those who join the Union.
