Xinjiang Federation of Trade Unions

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Xinjiang Federation of Trade Unions, or Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Regional Federation of Trade Unions (XUARFTU; Chinese: 新疆维吾尔自治区总工会), established in October 1955 in Ürümqi, focuses on labor integration and vocational training in Xinjiang's energy and agriculture sectors.[1]

History

[edit]

During the post-1949, it mobilized workers for state projects like the Karamay Oil Field in 1955 and the Tarim Desert Highway in 1995, promoting ethnic unity through Soviet-modeled labor campaigns.[2][3] In the 2010s, the XUARFTU prioritized skills development through the Xinjiang Vocational Skills Education Centers in 2014, training workers in cotton processing, solar energy, and logistics for the Xinjiang Free-Trade Zone.[4][5][6]
