Description: Public Services, Transport and Traffic Union
Gewerkschaft Öffentliche Dienste und Verkehr (ÖTV)

This has been another large and powerful union, comprising people working in public service. This is one of the five unions that agreed two weeks ago to merge to the new big union 'ver.di' (Vereinigte Dienstleistungsgewerkschaft or United Service Union). The flag has been simply red with white letters 'ötv'.

I do not know if this flag was used (the ÖTV merged with others to form the new ver.di union last year). Flags of unions usually use the logo, but there are a lot of variants, so I think it is probable that a flag like that was used.
