Denmark has FH, which stands for "fagbevægelse hovedorganisation", which is essentially a kind of alliance of unions. The only one not part of this alliance is Krifa and their Faglig Hus (Krifa = kristelig fag).

I am shocked that a Christian organisation wouldn't play ball with the others. To be fair when I say "other countries" I'm obviously painting with a very broad brush. I'm sure that there are countries out there with good strong national unions, and I'd be surprised if that's not fairly common here in the Nordics.

We love our folkrörelser here in Sweden, like we even have a tenants union, that each year, among other things, negotiate rent increases with the landlords and their unions. They'll also offer legal counsel and even representation if you're a member, which if you're a tenant in Sweden you fucking should be.
