Namibia Public Workers Union (NAPWU) was formed on 6 December 1987. At that time, Namibia was still ruled by an oppressive colonial regime and NAPWU was facing many difficulties because of its commitment to a free and independent Namibia. NAPWU officials were often harassed and even arrested but NAPWU continued to grow and became the strongest union in the civil service.
Today, NAPWU organizes workers in the civil service, including government ministries, municipalities, parastatals, semi-stated institutions, private hospitals and schools as well as any organization providing social services, and that is wholly or partially dependent on government funding.
All our Offices are run by fulltime staff and can be reached at the addresses shown Contact Us page.
All NAPWU members who are paying 1% of their membership fees are automatically part of the union’s Members Benefit Fund which offers death benefit of N$7 500.00 per member.
NAPWU has offices in most of the major towns in the country seen on our shown Contact Us page.
