International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers (IFPTE)

The International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers (IFPTE), AFL-CIO & CLC, is a diverse labor union advocating on behalf of more than 80,000 workers in professional, technical, administrative and associated occupations in Canada and the United States. Our members are employed by federal, public and private employers. We balance the broad range of our members' interests by adhering to democratic processes and consensus decision-making. Unique in representing highly educated and skilled women and men, IFPTE combines the collective bargaining strength of a union with the autonomy and specialization of a professional association.
