NEW ZEALAND FISHING INDUSTRY GUILD
The New Zealand Fishing Industry Guild is the registered union for commercial fishermen, working for New Zealand fishing companies. We represent the interests of fishermen throughout New Zealand and there are many good reasons for being a member of the Fishing Guild.
Membership subscription fees help fund the Guild to get the best return for members by way of fair wages and conditions, regular earnings increases, better health and safety and more job security.
The annual earnings increases, negotiated by the Guild, on behalf of members, is usually significantly more than the annual membership fee, so being a paid member of the New Zealand Fishing Industry Guild offers good value for money.
The annual Guild membership subscription fee for the financial year 01/04/2023 to 31/03/2024 is $425.00 .
