| Location: New South Wales | |||
The Amalgamated Metal Workers and Shipwrights Union was a federally registered trade union. |
Details | |
| Formed by the amalgamation of the Amalgamated Metal Workers’ Union and the Federated Shipwrights' & Ship Constructors' Association of Australia in 1976, the Amalgamated Metal Workers' & Shipwrights' Union functioned until 1983 when it joined the Federated Moulders' (Metals) Union of Australia to become the Amalgamated Metals Foundry and Shipwrights' Union. It reverted to the Amalgamated Metal Workers' Union in 1985 before a round of amalgamations saw its name change again, this time to the Metals and Engineering Workers Union (1991), the Automotive Metals & Engineering Union (1993), and finally the Automotive Food Metals & Engineering Union in 1994. | |
