Membership

As an RMT member you are part of a collective group of offshore energy workers which gives you strength that you wouldn’t have alone. We are here to provide you with support, protection and security at work and at home.


Always wondered what we do?


RMT is constantly campaigning to promote and defend our industry, to prevent damaging and unfair cuts. We are a proud campaigning union, applying pressure to politicians as well as employers.


Facing a formal disciplinary hearing, or having to raise a grievance against an employer on your own can be an intimidating experience! RMT will support you with a competent Representative.


RMT will always seek to negotiate better pay, increase paid leave, and improve all benefits and allowances. Many members work away from home doing unsociable hours. RMT fight to ensure you receive appropriate pay and enjoy a fair work/life balance.


Problems at work can happen, when they do, you can contact RMT in confidence and speak to an advisor. We all need support some time; bullying, harassment, or intimidation, feeling undervalued, denied career advancement or training, any problem RMT can support you.


Safety and the prevention of accidents is our priority. If you suffer an accident, RMT officials and lawyers are there to support you throughout your recovery and to secure compensation. RMT also provides excellent legal support in employment law, as well as a wide range of legal support. This is free of charge and we help thousands of members every year.


RMT gives you a voice with industry, with regulators and governments. We participate in all forums to drive the

issues that matter most to you. Getting involved with RMT gets you involved with the people that can bring about change.
