National Engineering And Electrical Trade Union
The National Engineering and Electrical Trade Union (NEETU) was a trade union representing engineering workers in Ireland. The union was formed in 1920 as the Irish Engineering Industrial Union. Its first couple of years were turbulent, with the Irish Stationary Engine Drivers and the Operative Society of Mechanical Heating and Domestic Engineers, Whitesmiths, Ironworkers, and Pipe Fitters both joining, but the Irish General Railway and Engineering Union and the Electrical Trades Union both splitting away. In 1948, the union renamed itself as the Irish Engineering, Industrial and Electrical Trade Union. The National Engineering Union (a renaming of the Irish General Railway and Engineering Union) amalgamated into the union in 1966, and the union renamed itself as the National Engineering and Electrical Trade Union. However, the merger was not recognised by the government, and the National Engineering Union continued to exist on paper until 1976. In 2001, the union merged wi ...

Technical, Engineering And Electrical Union
Connect is a trade union representing construction, electrical, and technical workers in Ireland. History The union came into existence in 2001, when it was named the Technical Engineering and Electrical Union (TEEU). It arose from an amalgamation between the Electrical Trades Union (Ireland), Electrical Trades Union and the National Engineering and Electrical Trade Union. Both unions could trace their origins to 1920 when union activists in British based unions believed Irish workers needed autonomous representation in the emerging Irish state. In 2016, members of the Union of Construction, Allied Trades and Technicians based in Republic of Ireland, Ireland transferred to the TEEU. In 2018, the union changed its name to "Connect". Remit The union represents a broad range of workers throughout industry and public service. It includes craftworkers, technicians, skilled operatives, general workers, technical, administration, and supervisory staff. The TEEU is the largest engineer ...

Irish Congress Of Trade Unions
The Irish Congress of Trade Unions (often abbreviated to just Congress or ICTU), formed in 1959 by the merger of the Irish Trades Union Congress (founded in 1894) and the Congress of Irish Unions (founded in 1945), is a national trade union centre, the umbrella organization, umbrella organisation to which trade unions in both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland affiliate. Influence There are currently 55 trade unions with membership of Congress, representing about 600,000 members in the Republic of Ireland. Trade union members represent 35.1% of the Republic's workforce. This is a significant decline since the 55.3% recorded in 1980 and the 38.5% reported in 2003. In the Republic, roughly 50% of union members are in the public sector. The ICTU represents trade unions in negotiations with employers and the government with regard to pay and working conditions Structure The supreme policy-making body of Congress is the Biennial Delegate Conference, to which affiliated unio ...

Irish General Railway And Engineering Union
The National Engineering Union (NEU) was a trade union in Ireland. The union was founded in 1922 as the Irish General Railway and Engineering Union, a split from the Irish Engineering Industrial Union. It initially had only 612 members, most of whom worked for the Great Southern and Western Railway. In 1925, it applied to affiliate to the Irish Trade Union Congress (ITUC), but was rejected as other union already represented engineering workers. In 1933, it renamed itself as the Irish Engineering and Foundry Union (IE&FU). It reapplied to the ITUC in 1939, but the Plumbers', Glaziers' and Domestic Engineers' Union objected to its membership, a situation resolved by transferring the IE&FU's heating section to the plumbers' union. In 1945, the union affiliated to the new Congress of Irish Unions, and by 1947 membership had grown to 2,500.{{cite book , last1=Devine , first1=Francis , last2=Smethurst , first2=John B. , title=Historical Directory of Trade Unions in Ireland , date= ...

Electrical Trades Union (Ireland)
The Electrical Trades Union was a trade union representing electrical technicians and engineers in Ireland. The union was founded in 1923 when the electrical section of the Irish Engineering Industrial Union split away. Initially, it was named the Electrical Trades Union (Dublin), but became the Electrical Trades Union (Ireland) in 1925. It joined the Irish Trades Union Congress, then joined the group of unions which formed the rival Congress of Irish Unions.John B. Smethurst and Peter Carter, ''Historical Directory of Trade Unions'', vol.6, p.214 The union was initially very small, with only 240 members in 1930, but grew to 1,000 in 1940. From the 1960s onwards, the union began accepting workers in a wide variety of jobs only loosely connecting with electrical matters, and this enabled it to expand its membership above 6,000 by 1970. In 1974, the British Electrical Trades Union became part of the Electrical, Electronic, Telecommunications and Plumbing Union, and the Irish u ...

Trade Unions Established In 1920
Trade involves the transfer of goods and services from one person or entity to another, often in exchange for money. Economists refer to a system or network that allows trade as a market. Traders generally negotiate through a medium of credit or exchange, such as money. Though some economists characterize barter (i.e. trading things without the use of money) as an early form of trade, money was invented before written history began. Consequently, any story of how money first developed is mostly based on conjecture and logical inference. Letters of credit, paper money, and non-physical money have greatly simplified and promoted trade as buying can be separated from selling, or earning. Trade between two traders is called bilateral trade, while trade involving more than two traders is called multilateral trade. In one modern view, trade exists due to specialization and the division of labor, a predominant form of economic activity in which individuals and groups concentr ...
