Trade Union
A trade union (labor union in American English), often simply referred to as a union, is an organization of workers intent on "maintaining or improving the conditions of their employment", ch.

Federation Of Independent Unions
The Federation of Independent Unions ( ja, 中立労働組合連絡会議, Churitsuroren) was a national trade union federation in Japan. The federation was established in 1962 as a loose association. It was closely linked to the General Council of Trade Unions of Japan (Sōhyō), initially sharing most of its staff, but avoided any political affiliation. Over time, it became more conservative and built up its own staff, but continued to co-operate closely with Sōhyō. The federation claimed 1,200,000 members by 1967, and 1,321,000 in 1978, almost all in the private sector. That year, it formed a loose association with the National Federation Of Industrial Organisations (Shinsambetsu), intending to merge in the future. In 1987, it merged with both Shinsambetsu and the larger Japanese Confederation of Labour, to form the Japanese Trade Union Confederation.

Trade Unions Established In 1948
Trade involves the transfer of goods and services from one person or entity to another, often in exchange for money. Economists refer to a system or network that allows trade as a market. An early form of trade, barter, saw the direct exchange of goods and services for other goods and services, i.e. trading things without the use of money. Modern traders generally negotiate through a medium of exchange, such as money. As a result, buying can be separated from selling, or earning. The invention of money (and letter of credit, paper money, and non-physical money) greatly simplified and promoted trade. Trade between two traders is called bilateral trade, while trade involving more than two traders is called multilateral trade. In one modern view, trade exists due to specialization and the division of labour, a predominant form of economic activity in which individuals and groups concentrate on a small aspect of production, but use their output in trades for other products a ...
