Labour movement in Lebanon

The Lebanese labour movement dates back to the early 20th century, where in the early stages of Lebanon's conception workers started to organise to demand better protection and higher wages. For a large part of its history, the labour movement remained outside of the sectarian political system of Lebanon, being one of the larger movements through which Lebanese workers could unify along non-sectarian lines. Through the Civil War and political intervention, the labour movement has been partially integrated in the sectarian system of the country and remains fragmented today.
