Federation of General State Administration

The Federation of General State Administration (French: Fédération de l'Administration Générale de l'État, FAGE) is a trade union representing civil servants in France.

The union originated as a split from the National Federation of State Workers, an affiliate of the General Confederation of Labour, by those who objected to the influence of the French Communist Party. Although only a minority joined the new union, the Federation of General Administration, it included a majority of prefectural workers. In 1948, it affiliated to Workers' Force, and became a founding affiliate of its General Federation of Public Servants. In 1953, the small National Economic Federation merged into the union.[1][2]

By 2002, the union claimed 30,000 members.[3]
