The organisation is independent of governmental and political groups. The CNV is one of the largest trade union organisations in the Netherlands and can be proud of broad grassroots support throughout the country. The CNV unions protect and advocate employees’ rights in matters related to collective labour agreements, social security and pensions.

CNV and its affiliated unions work for the betterment of society, for the right of people to share in prosperity and well-being, and for the right to live in freedom on the basis of equality. The CNV trade union federation actively promotes better working opportunities, acceptable working conditions, worker participation, social security, environmental protection, and education and training facilities. The CNV also devotes much endeavour to improving democratic and social principles on an international scale by supporting trade union federations worldwide. This scope makes the CNV a broad movement that strives for the renewal of society and workers’ emancipation, in addition to the protection of collective and individual interests.
