Biographical history
The Federated Municipal and Shire Council Employees' Union of Australia traces its history to the Municipal Employees' Association formed in 1910. In 1914, after attempting to form a federation with Tasmanian and New South Wales municipal unions and with the aim of achieving an industry wide award, the Federated Municipal Employees' Association of Australia was registered in the Arbitration Commission. The union changed its name to the Federal Municipal and Shire Council Employees' Union of Australia in 1917. It merged with the Australian Municipal Transport Energy Water Ports Community & Information Services Union in 1993 to form the Australian Municipal Administrative Clerical & Services Union.
