Founded in 1973 at Addis Ababa, Ethiopia through the unification of the ALL-African Trade Union Federation (AATUF), the African Trade Union Confederation (ATUC), and the Pan-African Workers' Congress, the OATUU is a specialized agency of the Organization of African Unity (OAU). The organization remains unaffiliated to any international trade union confederation, but maintains fraternal relations with trade union organizations worldwide.
