TCTU has 5 primary goals：

1. Broaden our membership, especially at the local level.

2. Oppose policies resulting in unemployment, such as privatization and liberalization.

3. Reform the labor laws created during the authoritarian government.

4. Build solidarity with the international labor movement.

5. Promote labor movement leadership in national political affairs.

Because the KMT authoritarian regime built a system of law limiting the growth of unions, the most urgent task of TCTU has been the reform of labor laws.

We are still fighting for the basic civil rights of Taiwanese workers.
