Chongqing Federation of Trade Unions

The Chongqing Federation of Trade Unions (CFTU; Chinese: 重庆市总工会) is the principal labor organization in Chongqing, China, operating under the dual leadership of the All-China Federation of Trade Unions (ACFTU) and the Chongqing Municipal Committee of the Chinese Communist Party.

Established in November 1926, it was reorganized in 1951, dissolved during the Cultural Revolution (1969), and reinstated in 1973.

Its core responsibilities include safeguarding workers' rights, mediating labor disputes, and promoting socialist values among employees.

Notably, it has pioneered initiatives to protect gig economy workers and organized campaigns like "Four Seasons Assistance" to support low-income families.

It also plays a key role in cultural and social governance, managing institutions such as the Chongqing Workers’ Cultural Palace and hosting events like the Chongqing Workers' Art Festival.
