General Dutch Construction Union

The General Dutch Construction Union (Dutch: Algemeen Nederlandsche Bond van Bouwbedrijfsbond, ANB) was a trade union representing workers in the construction industry in the Netherlands.

[1] Like both its forerunners, it affiliated to the Dutch Confederation of Trade Unions (NVV).

[2] In 1951, the NVV reorganised its affiliates, to form industrial unions.

The union began representing office workers in the construction industry, and in 1952 adopted its final name.

On 1 January 1970, it merged with the General Industrial Union of Furniture Makers and Woodworkers, to form the General Dutch Union of the Building and Wood Industries.
