The Federation of Employees in the Postal and Telecommunications Sector (French: Fédération des salariés du secteur des activités postales et de télécommunications, FAPT) is a trade union representing communication workers in France.
The union was founded in 1919, as the National Federation of PTT Workers, and claimed 75,000 members by the end of the year, about half the total employees at Postes, Télégraphes et Téléphones.
In 1922, the left wing of the union split away, to form the United Postal Federation.
[1] With the exclusion of supporters of the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact, the union became dominated by collaborators of the Vichy regime and was dissolved.
In 1944, after the liberation of France, two separate groups claimed to represent the union, one led by former United Postal Federation leaders, and one with the right wing of the union, which had remained with the CGT.
