The '''Metal-Textile Union''' ({{langx|de|Gewerkschaft Metall-Textil}}, GMT) was a trade union representing manufacturing workers and miners in Austria.
The union was founded in 2000, when the Union of Metal, Mining and Energy (GMBE) merged with the Union of Textile, Clothing and Leather Workers.<ref>{{cite web |title=Eine Bewegung in Bewegung |url=https://www.oegb.at/cms/S06/S06_999_Suche.a/1342537066882/suche/eine-bewegung-in-bewegung |website=Austrian Trade Union Federation |accessdate=16 January 2020}}</ref> The union was led by Rudolf Nürnberger, former president of the GMBE.<ref>{{cite web |title=Rudolf Nürnberger |url=https://www.parlament.gv.at/WWER/PAD_01062/index.shtml |website=Republik Österreich: Parlament |accessdate=17 January 2020}}</ref>
