Histadrut, fully the '''New General Workers' Federation () and until 1994 the General Federation of Labour in the Land of Israel''' (), is Israel's national trade union center and represents the majority of Israel's trade unionists.
Established in December 1920 in Mandatory Palestine, it soon became one of the most powerful institutions in the Yishuv (the body of Jewish residents in the region prior to the establishment of the state). Today, it has 800,000 members.
