The Confederazione Italiana Sindacati Lavoratori (CISL; Italian Confederation of Trade Unions) is an Italian trade union association representing various Roman Catholic–inspired groups linked with Christian Democracy.
It was founded on 30 April 1950, when Catholics in the Italian General Confederation of Labour (CGIL) left after they clashed with the communists on the issue of a general strike provoked by the latter. As the French Force Ouvrière (FO) union, it received financial support from Irving Brown, leader of the international relations of the US AFL–CIO and a CIA contractee.
