The "Amanat" Commonwealth of Trade Unions is a national trade union centre in Kazakhstan that was established on 7 June 2017 following the liquidation of the Confederation of Independent Trade Unions of Kazakhstan in late 2016 by the Kazakh government. According to leader Andrei Prigor, the AKD was formed as an alternative to the established trade unions in Kazakhstan addressing labour disputes with an intent of balancing worker relations. It also seeks to change the Labour Code of Kazakhstan to more compliant within the framework of the existing Civil Code.
