  • The National Joint Committee of Working Women's Organisations was an organisation representing women active in the labour movement in the United Kingdom. The organisation was founded in 1916 by the National Federation of Women Workers, Women's Co-operative Guild, Women's Labour League, Women's Trade Union League and , as the Standing Joint Committee of Industrial Women's Organisations (SJCIWO). It aimed to represent women workers, by helping them gain representation on relevant bodies at the local, national and international level. It became closely aligned with the Labour Party, and the Chief Women's Officer of the party acted as the group's secretary. By 1932, the group's constitution stated that the following organisations could become affiliates: "the Labour Party, the Trades Union Congress, the Women's Co-operative Guild, and the Railway Women's Guild; and organisations affiliated to the Labour Party or the Trades Union Congress, of which a substantial number of the members are women, which are national in character, and are accepted by the committee". In 1941, the group was renamed as the Standing Joint Committee of Working Women's Organisations', and then in 1952 it adopted its final name. By 1993, the group's members believed that its purposes were better served by other organisations in the labour movement, and it dissolved. (en)
