Chinese Federation of Labor

The Chinese Federation of Labor (CFL, Chinese: 中華民國全國總工會) is a national trade union center in the Republic of China. It was founded in 1948 in mainland China, and until the government recognition of the Taiwan Confederation of Trade Unions in 2000, was the sole official labor confederation in the RoC.
