The Federation of Uganda Employers (FUE) is the premier voice of Employers on social and economic issues. It is recognized
both locally and internationally as the sole employers’ organization in Uganda.
The Federation was initially registered as a corporate body on 18 th August 1960 under the names “Society of Employers” which
was changed to Federation of Uganda Employers on 17 th August 1961 and registered under the Trustees Incorporation Act
1939 Cap 126 Laws of Uganda.
For 60 years now FUE has supported start-ups, small and medium size enterprises, and large organizations to thrive.
As the official delegate and voice of Employers in Uganda, FUE derives its mandate from the ILO tripartite declaration and
therefore consults on behalf of Uganda’s private sector on matters of labor and Employment relations.
FUE is therefore affiliated to the International Organization of Employers (IOE) at the global level, to Business Africa at the
African Union level, and to the East African Employers Organization (EAEO) at the EAC level. It is the officially recognized body
that represents Ugandan Employers at the annual International Labour conference.
