The Pakistan Workers' Federation (PWF) is a national trade union centre in Pakistan. It is the largest labour organisation in the country and its affiliated unions are among the oldest. The centre itself was created in 1994 through a merger of three former national centres. It is independent and non-political. Internationally, it is affiliated with ITUC.[1][3]
ITUC put out a call for the restoration of a democratic system in Pakistan in 2007 along with Pakistan Workers Federation.[4] In 2011, thousands of workers protested against price hikes in Islamabad.[5]
