The Nordic Union for Employees in Hotel, Restaurant, Catering and Tourism (NU HRCT) is a federation of seven trade unions in Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden and Denmark. NU HRCT coordinates and strengthens cooperation across the Nordic HRCT sector.

NU HRCT represents 100,000 members at Nordic, European and global level.
