IWW Ireland Branch is one of the fastest growing branch of the Industrial Workers of the World which covers the entire island of Ireland, north and south.
The IWW is a revolutionary syndicalist union which is open to all workers.
A grassroots and democratic union where members support each other through solidarity against exploitation we face as workers, tenants and claimants. The action we take is decided at the grassroots level and our (low) membership fees are not spent on highly paid union officials or political party donations. We are a radical union that aim is to see society re-organised to meet the interests of all people, and not just shareholders and corporations. We welcome new members to branch meetings.

We are a grassroots, democratic and radical union helping to organise all workers across all workplaces.

We are:
Led by membership. We make all decisions and we all have the final say.
For uniting all workers across trades, industries and countries.
Able to offer practical support for members in their workplace.
Flexible so you are still a member even when you change job or contract.
We are NOT:
Full of stifling bureaucracy or linked to any political party or group.
Led by fat cat salary earners who carry out deals with bosses behind your back.
Going to sell you services, life insurance or credit cards.
