Korean Confederation of Trade Unions
The Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU) is a major trade union federation in South Korea, established in 1995. It represents a wide range of workers across various industries, advocating for labor rights, better working conditions, and fair wages. The KCTU plays a significant role in organizing strikes and protests to address workers' issues and influence labor policies.
The KCTU is known for its strong stance on social justice and democracy, often collaborating with other civil society organizations. It is one of the largest trade union groups in South Korea, alongside the Federation of Korean Trade Unions (FKTU), and has been involved in various campaigns to improve labor laws and protect workers' rights.
