General German Civil Service Federation
The General German Civil Service Federation (german: Allgemeiner Deutscher Beamtenbund, ADB) was a trade union representing civil servants in Germany. In 1922, the German Civil Service Federation (DBB) opposed a strike by railway workers. In protest, the federation's more left-wing affiliates left and on 8 June founded the "General German Civil Service Federation". The new federation soon negotiated a partnership agreement with the General German Trade Union Federation, and the AfA-Bund. It also worked closely with the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD), but because some SPD supporters remained part of the DBB, the SPD only recognised the new federation in 1930. The federation was led by Albert Falkenberg and published the journal ''Mitteilungsblatt der Gewerkschaflichen Beamtenzentrale''. From 1925, it was affiliated to the International Federation of Civil Servants. Membership of the federation was initially 350,000 but, due to reductions of the size of the German civil ...

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. I such as attaining better wages and benefits (such as holiday, health care, and retirement), improving working conditions, improving safety standards, establishing complaint procedures, developing rules governing status of employees (rules governing promotions, just-cause conditions for termination) and protecting the integrity of their trade through the increased bargaining power wielded by solidarity among workers. Trade unions typically fund their head office and legal team functions through regularly imposed fees called ''union dues''. The delegate staff of the trade union representation in the workforce are usually made up of workplace volunteers who are often appointed by members in democratic elections. The trade union, through an elected leadership and bargaining committee, ...

The Union of German Professional Firefighters (german: Verband Deutscher Berufsfeuerwehrmänner) was a trade union representing firefighters in Germany. The union was founded on 1 October 1908, at a meeting in Dortmund. It published the journal ''Der Berufsfeuerwehrmann''.

By 1920, the union had 9,470 members, which represented more than 90% of eligible workers. In 1921, the union affiliated to the General German Trade Union Federation. In 1922, it also affiliated to the related General German Civil Service Federation. By 1924, the union's leadership was concerned that it was too small to survive in the long-term. It proposed a merger int ...

Trade Unions Established In 1922
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 an ...

Union Of Municipal And State Workers
The Union of Municipal and State Workers (german: Verband der Gemeinde- und Staatsarbeiter, VGS) was a trade union representing public sector workers in Germany. History In September 1896, gas workers in Berlin went on strike in opposition to having to work for 18 hours on Sundays. Bruno Poersch, leader of the local union of saddlers, supported the strike, and helped found a union to represent them. This was officially established on 4 October, under the name the Union of Gas, Wood, Coal, and Other Workers, and by the end of the year, it had launched a journal. Poersch aimed to develop the union into one representing municipal workers, and so in 1897, the coal and wood workers were transferred to the German Transport Workers' Union, and the union became the Association of Gas and Other Municipal Workers, recruiting water, sewage, lighting, market and slaughterhouse workers, as well as inspectors of gas works. Section were established for each industry, and in 1899, the union wa ...

Civil Servant
The civil service is a collective term for a sector of government composed mainly of career civil servants hired on professional merit rather than appointed or elected, whose institutional tenure typically survives transitions of political leadership. A civil servant, also known as a public servant, is a person employed in the public sector by a government department or agency for public sector undertakings. Civil servants work for central and state governments, and answer to the government, not a political party. The extent of civil servants of a state as part of the "civil service" varies from country to country. In the United Kingdom (UK), for instance, only Crown (national government) employees are referred to as "civil servants" whereas employees of local authorities (counties, cities and similar administrations) are generally referred to as "local government civil service officers", who are considered public servants but not civil servants. Thus, in the UK, a civil servant is ...
