The Japan Federation of Transport Workers' Unions (JFT, Japanese: 全国交通運輸労働組合総連合, Kotsu Roren) is a trade union representing workers in the transport sector in Japan.
The union was established in 9 November 1964, with the merger of the National Federation of Transport Workers' Unions and the National Council of Bus Workers' Unions.[1] It became affiliated with the Japanese Confederation of Labour, and by 1967, it had 75,786 members.[2] It transferred to the Japanese Trade Union Confederation in the late 1980s, but by 2020 its membership had declined to 45,579.[3]
