The Japanese Trade Union Confederation (JTUC) (日本労働組合総連合会, Nihon Rōdōkumiai Sōrengōkai), commonly known as RENGO (連合, Rengō), is the largest national trade union center in Japan, with over six million members as of 2011.[1] It was founded in 1989 as a result of the merger of the Japan Confederation of Labor (Dōmei), the Federation of Independent Unions (Chūritsu Rōren) and the National Federation Of Industrial Organisations (Shinsanbetsu). In 1990, the General Council of Trade Unions of Japan (Sohyo) also joined RENGO.
