Gewerkschaftsbund

A Gewerkschaftsbund, or trade union federation, is an organization that unites multiple individual trade unions within a specific industry or sector. Its primary purpose is to coordinate collective actions, advocate for workers’ rights, improve working conditions, and negotiate better wages and benefits on behalf of its member unions. By consolidating resources and influence, a Gewerkschaftsbund amplifies the collective bargaining power of workers, promotes solidarity among unions, and represents their interests in political and social discussions. It plays a crucial role in fostering fair labor practices and ensuring workers’ voices are heard.
