Special Recruitment Campaign Members recruit members

There are many of us, but we want to grow even stronger—because together we can achieve more. If you recruit colleagues to become members, we’ll thank you with a gift.

“Members Recruit Members”—this is the motto for our current special recruitment campaign. After all, committed members are IG Metall’s best ambassadors. Those who have experienced firsthand how necessary and helpful a strong community is can also credibly share that experience with others.

That’s why we’d like to thank you with a gift when you recruit a new member for IG Metall. For every new member you recruit, you’ll receive a promotional code that you can redeem in our shop.

Almost all IG Metall local offices are participating in the promotion. If you’d like to know whether your local office is participating, you can contact them here. All IG Metall members are eligible to participate.


Great outfits in many colors

As a thank-you, we’re once again offering high-quality apparel featuring the IG Metall logo. The outfits for metalworkers are available in various sizes in red, gray, and black. Workwear from the Engelbert Strauss brand is also available. New to the lineup: a roll-up backpack that can be used as both a bike bag and a backpack. You can get this for four promotional codes.

If you’d like, you can also personalize your outfit by having your name, your IG Metall local office, your union committee, or your workplace embroidered on it.

Or you can give your promotional codes to new metalworkers so they can pick out a nice outfit.

Choose from the options and get your thank-you gift

For every new member, we’ll give you a discount code. You can redeem your promo codes in the shop—we’ll also show you how it works there.
