German Labor Front

The German Labor Front (Deutsche Arbeitsfront, DAF) was an organization established in 1933 by the Nazi regime after the abolition of trade unions. Its purpose was to control and regulate the workforce in Germany, ensuring loyalty to the Nazi ideology and the state. The DAF promoted workers' interests under the banner of national unity, providing benefits such as leisure activities, but it ultimately functioned to suppress dissent and eliminate independent labor movements. It was a key part of the regime's strategy to integrate workers into the Nazi system, emphasizing collective identity over individual rights.
