Transport and Allied Workers' Union

The Transport and Allied Workers' Union of South Africa (TAWUSA) is a trade union representing workers in the transport sector in South Africa.

The union was established in 1972 to represent black workers in the industry. In 1980, it was a founding affiliate of the Council of Unions of South Africa, and it grew from 8,183 members in 1981,[1] to 23,327 in 1986.[2] It was particularly strong among bus workers in Gauteng, and in Lebowa, Bophuthatswana and QwaQwa.[3]

In 1986, the union became part of the new National Council of Trade Unions, to which it remains affiliated.[4]
