Irish Congress of Trade Unions
The Irish Congress of Trade Unions (ICTU) is the main umbrella organization for trade unions in Ireland, representing a wide range of workers across various sectors. Established in 1959, ICTU advocates for workers' rights, fair wages, and better working conditions. It plays a crucial role in negotiating with employers and the government on labor-related issues, and it promotes solidarity among unions. By organizing campaigns and providing support for industrial actions, ICTU helps ensure that workers have a collective voice, contributing to social and economic justice in Ireland.
