A constitution is a system, often codified as a written document, that establishes the rules and principles that
govern an organisation or political entity. In the case of Trade unions and Trade union Federations, a constitution
is a document outlining the establishment, governance structures, decision-making, and other principles.
Every permanent organization of individuals, whether public or private, must have basic rules or laws for its
establishment and for the conduct of its activities. Our entire national, state, and local governmental
system rests on constitutions.
