The '''Norwegian Union of Iron and Metalworkers''' ({{langx|no|Norsk Jern- og Metallarbeiderforbund}}, NJMF) was a [[trade union]] representing workers in the metal industry, workshops, and shipbuilding in [[Norway]].
The union was founded in 1891, and in 1905 it joined the [[Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions]].  In 1907, it came to the country's first collective agreement, with the National Association of Mechanical Workshops.  In 1960, the union absorbed the [[Norwegian Union of Foundry Workers]], followed in 1985 by the [[Norwegian Union of Gold Workers]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Norsk Jern- og Metallarbeiderforbund |url=https://snl.no/Norsk_Jern-_og_Metallarbeiderforbund |website=Store Norske Leksikon |accessdate=10 November 2020}}</ref>  By 1987, it had 97,998 members.<ref>{{cite book |title=Directory of Labor Organizations: Europe |volume=2 |date=1965 |publisher=United States Department of Labor |location=Washington DC |page=21.1&ndash;21.18}}</ref>
In 1988, the union merged with the [[Garment Workers' Union]], the [[Norwegian Union of Building Industry Workers]], the [[Norwegian Union of Paper Industry Workers]] and the [[Norwegian Union of Forestry and Land Workers]] to form the [[United Federation of Trade Unions]].<ref>[http://www.fellesforbundet.no/internet/templates/Article.aspx?id=2790 United Federation of Trade Unions] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090318170125/http://www.fellesforbundet.no/internet/templates/Article.aspx?id=2790 |date=2009-03-18 }}</ref>
