The Graphical, Paper and Media Union (GPMU) is a trade union in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. It claims to be the world's largest media union, and has over 200,000 members working in the print, publishing, paper, IT and media industries.
Facing a decline in membership, in February 2004, the GPMU opened merger negotiations with Amicus. In August 2004, results of a ballot of all members were released, showing 86% of members in favour of merger. The formal merger took place in early 2005.
