History
The United Workers of Electronics & Electrical Industries (UWEEI) was registered as an industry-wide trade union representing workers in the electronics and electrical sector, with the restructuring of the omnibus unions to nine industry-based trade unions, on 14 July 1981. The rationale was to enable unions to gain more in-depth knowledge of their industry to better engage with companies in representing workers’ interests.
Affiliated to NTUC, UWEEI is the third largest union in Singapore, representing over 65,000 members in more than 120 companies.
