Marechaussee Union Explained

The Marechaussee Union (Dutch; Flemish: Marechausseevereniging), usually known as MARVER, is a trade union representing members of the Royal Marechaussee in the Netherlands.

The union was founded on 15 April 1907, acting as a trade association for members of the Marechaussee who were not officers. In 1978, it finally decided to admit officers to the organisation.[1]

The union affiliated to the Christian National Trade Union Federation, but in 1999, it transferred to the Federation of Dutch Trade Unions,[2] and began working closely with the General Federation of Military Personnel.
