The '''Finnish Trade Union Federation''' ({{langx|fi|Suomen Ammattijärjestö}}, SAJ) was a [[national trade union centre]] in Finland.
The federation was established in 1960, as a split from the [[Finnish Federation of Trade Unions]] (SAK), by unions which supported the [[Social Democratic Party of Finland]].  By 1968, the federation had 17 affiliates, but a total of only 95,166 members.  In 1969, it merged with the SAK, to form the [[Central Organisation of Finnish Trade Unions]].<ref name="ebbinghaus">{{cite book |last1=Ebbinghaus |first1=Bernhard |last2=Visser |first2=Jelle |title=Trade Unions in Western Europe Since 1945 |date=2000 |publisher=Palgrave Macmillan |location=Basingstoke |isbn=0333771125 |pages=216&ndash;219}}</ref>
