The GMB is a general trade union in the United Kingdom, and has more than 700,000 members. The GMB originates from a merger of four smaller trade unions in 1924, named the National Union of General and Municipal Workers. After many more mergers, it became known as the General, Municipal, Boilermakers and Allied Trade Union in 1982, from the initials of which its present name is derived.

The union is led by a general secretary.
