I'm doing a research on existence of so-called "local" worker unions (plus standalone and isolated, described later in this question) in any country?
Local union is an organization-level union that is formed within just one organization. The practice itself is not new as part of whole structural hierarchy, also local unions exist as primary levels in case of JICHIRO for example. However here I mean STANDALONE local unions, which means in one separate organization, such as certain ministry for example, there is a union, which is official standalone legal entity, and basically it is only an organization-level union, without being affiliated to national-level. Particularly I'm interested in public sector. I would appreciate greatly if you could tell me if such thing exists in your (or any) country, as I need country-by-country research.
Thank you.
There are many labor unions in Germany. In german they are called "Gewerkschaften".

Thanks, good article. I have contacted some people from international network also, seems like sometimes these separate unions in ministries can exist. They call it "yellow" unions. But it's very rare practice. In our country it's common, so they why I needed to see if this practiced also worldwide or not.
Enter your answer I have Danish colleagues working on yellow unions. I can let you have their details if you like.
