The federation of organized trade and labor unions is commonly referred to as a "labor federation." In the United States, one of the most prominent examples is the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO). These federations aim to represent the collective interests of workers, advocate for labor rights, and negotiate on behalf of their members.
