National Metal and Machinery Workers' Union

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The National Metal and Machinery Workers' Union (MMU, Japanese: 全国金属機械労働組合, Kinzokukikai) was a trade union representing workers in small and medium-sized engineering works in Japan.

The union was founded in 1989, when the National Trade Union of Metal and Engineering Workers merged with the National Machinery and Metal Workers' Union.[1][2] It affiliated to the Japanese Trade Union Confederation. On 9 September 1999, it merged with the Japanese Metal Industrial Workers' Union to form JAM.[3]
