The All Pakistan Federation of Labour (APFOL) is a national trade union centre in Pakistan. It was founded in 1951 by Rahmatullah Chaudhary.[1][2][3]

In 2004, All Pakistan Federation of Labour officeholders and other labour leaders demanded the repeal of anti-labour law, called Industrial Relations Ordinance (IRO)-2002 from the Pakistani government.[1]

All Pakistan Federation of Labour merged into Pakistan Workers' Federation in 2005 which, in turn, is affiliated with the International Trade Union Confederation based in Brussels, Belgium.[4]
