The Danish Women Workers' Union (Danish: Kvindeligt Arbejderforbund i Danmark, KAD) was a general union representing women working in what were perceived to be lower-skilled jobs, in Denmark.
It initially represented cleaners and laundry workers, but from 1890 also admitted women working in factories.
From 1892, it was led by Olivia Nielsen, and it expanded from Copenhagen into other cities.
About half its members worked in production, 20% in community services, 20% in private services, and the remainder in a wide variety of sectors.
[4] At the end of 2004, the union merged with the Danish General Workers' Union, to form the United Federation of Danish Workers.
