Historical Background of Trade Union in NepalThe history of trade unions in Nepal begins from the establishment of All Nepal Trade Union Congress (ANTUC) in 1946 and the Biratnagar Workers Union (BWU) in 1947. However, there was no any act governing employment relations at that time. In 1951, these two unions were unified. With inactment of factory and Factory Workers Act in 1959, First labour relations activities wree enforced by the government making provision for the organization of trade unions. With the political takeover by the King Mahendra inb 1960 and the introduction of panchyat system ( a single party system that ruled the coountry for 30 years), all political organizations were banned together with the trade union' activities. In 1979, a few unions come into existence and continued to organize. In theis way in 1989 GEOFNT, in 1990 NTUC and in 1998 DECONT came into existence.

But currently, three large unions are working in the field as the sister organizations of political parties. GEOFNT is affiliated with Communis party, NTUC with the Nepal Congress party and DECONT with the National Democratic party are working in the field. There is no good relation and no communication, co-ordination among them. So that the traders Nepal are not in good condition due to differentd political parties.
