The International Longshoremen's Association (ILA) is the largest union representing maritime workers in North America, with a membership of over 85,000 longshoremen across the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts, Great Lakes, major U.S. rivers, Puerto Rico, Eastern Canada, and the Bahamas. Founded in 1892, the ILA has deep historical roots, tracing back to the Association of Lumber Handlers established on the Great Lakes in 1877.
The ILA is affiliated with prominent organizations such as the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations, the Canadian Labour Congress, and the Worldwide International Transport Workers Federation. The union actively works to address the challenges faced by its members, including issues related to job loss and automation within the maritime industry.
