The CFMEU Manufacturing Division has a long and proud history. Our Union is made up of four Unions who have all contributed to the struggle for improved wages and conditions for their members. These Unions are the Australian Timber Workers Union, The Federated Furnishing Trades Society, the Pulp and Paper Workers' Federation and the Federated Engine Drivers and Firemens' Association.
The following information provides an overview of the history of the CFMEU Manufacturing Division.
Background
The CFMEU Manufacturing Division was first registered as a Federal Organisation under the Commonwealth Conciliation and Arbitration Act (1904) on the 21st August 1907, as the Federated Sawmill, Timber-yard and Woodworkers Employees Association of Australasia.
The name of the Union was changed on the 27th October 1913 to the Amalgamated Timber Workers Union of Australia, and again on the 10th July 1918 to the Australian Timber Workers Union.
