José D'Elía (21 June 1916 - 29 January 2007) was a Uruguayan labor leader and politician.
Born in Treinta y Tres, D'Elía worked as a shop employee and from his youth onwards he took part in the trade union movement.
Between 1964 and 1966, he was a fundamental factor in the unification of the Uruguayan labor movement which resulted in the creation of the Workers National Central (CNT), whose first president was D'Elía.
A Socialist Party member from his youth, D'Elía supported the creation of the Frente Amplio in 1971.
His last public appearance was between 2000 and 2003, when he took part in the Peace Commission which investigated the whereabouts of those who disappeared under the military dictatorship in the 1970s.
