The General Confederation of Labor - Workers' Force (French: Confédération Générale du Travail - Force Ouvrière, or simply Force Ouvrière) is one of the five major union federations in France.

Force Ouvrière was founded in 1948 by former members of the General Confederation of Labor who denounced the dominance of the French Communist Party over that federation. It is alleged by some that this split was instigated by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

FO is a member of the European Trade Union Confederation. Its leader is Jean-Claude Mailly. For a number of decades, FO has been dominated by members of the Internationalist Communist Organization (which now an affiliate of the Workers' Party).
