PRINTING INDUSTRY EMPLOYEES’ UNION OF AUSTRALIA (WA BRANCH) PRINTING AND KINDRED INDUSTRIES UNION

The Union which was to become the Western Australian branch of the Printing Industry Employees' Union of Australia (WA Branch) was formed in 1888 and can claim the honour of being the first Union in the State. It was then known as the Western Australian Typographical Society. When the first Industrial Conciliation and Arbitration Act was passed in 1900, the title of the Society was altered, registering as the Western Australian Typographical Industrial Union of Workers. This was when the Union became part of the federated industry. The Union became a branch of the PIEUA in 1916 but retained its former name until 1921 when it merged with the Goldfields Typographical Union, the Bookbinders' and Paper Rulers' Union and the Metropolitan Female Employees' Union of Workers, WA. In 1931 the Union left the Federal body and was known as the PIEUA of WA until it re‐affiliated in 1935. The Newspaper Industry Union of Workers was formed in Perth in 1932 by a section of disgruntled newspaper employees. This group amalgamated with the WA Branch of the PIEUA in 1938. Other amalgamations took place with Printing Trades Employees' Union of Australia, Federated Photo Engravers Employees' Association, and the Victorian Printing Employees' Union of Australia. The Union changed its name to the Printing and Kindred Industries Union in 1966. The PKIU amalgamated with the Automotive, Food, Metals and Engineering Workers' Union in 1995 becoming the Australian Manufacturing Workers' Union (AMWU).
