Its first president was Cipriano Cid of the Philippine Trade Union Council.[1] The CLO controlled labor unions in all major industries in Panay and Manila, representing a significant percentage of the organized labor force therein and was the dominant labor federation of the period immediately after World War II.[2]
The CLO was part of the Democratic Alliance, a leftist political party led by the Partido Komunista ng Pilipinas.[3] Its president during the mid-1960s was Amado V. Hernandez.[4]
