European Federation of Building and Woodworkers (EFBWW)

The European Federation of Building and Woodworkers (EFBWW) defends the rights of workers of the building, woodworking, forestry sectors and allied industries and trades. The EFBWW also provides a framework for trade union cooperation and the coordination of lobby work towards the European institutions and other actions undertaken in the industries we represent in Europe. The EFBWW has 77 affiliated unions in 36 countries and is a member organisation of the European Trade Union Confederation (ETUC). We deal with the labour market, migration, capacity building, industrial relations, health and safety issues, and worker representation in multinational companies. Together with the ETUC and the other European Industry Federations we are striving to achieve a fair internal market and a more social Europe.
