The Finnish Trade Union Federation (Template:Lang-fi, SAJ) was a national trade union centre in Finland.

The federation was established in 1960, as a split from the Finnish Federation of Trade Unions (SAK), by unions which supported the Social Democratic Party of Finland. By 1968, the federation had 17 affiliates, but a total of only 95,166 members. In 1969, it merged with the SAK, to form the Central Organisation of Finnish Trade Unions.[1]
