The Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions (Norwegian: Landsorganisasjonen i Norge, LO) is a national trade union center, decidedly the largest and probably the most influential umbrella organizationoflabour unionsinNorway. The 21 national unions affiliated to the LO have almost 1,000,000 members of a Norwegian population of 5 million. The majority of affiliated unions organizes traditional blue collar workers, but the largest affiliate is the Norwegian Union of Municipal and General Employees which makes up more than a third of all members.[1] LO is affiliated to the ITUC and the ETUC.
It was named the Workers' National Trade Union (Norwegian: Arbeidernes Faglige Landsorganisasjon, AFL) from 1899 to 1957.[2] Affiliated with the Labour Party throughout its history, several of LO's member unions have concurrently been member bodies in the Labour Party.[3]
The organization owns the Norwegian Labour Movement Archives and Library.[4]
