Can confirm. In belgium there are 3 big unions, organized by ideology. They each have 2 names, as we are bilingual nl/fr :
* ACV/CSC - catholic
* ABVV/FGTB - socialist
* ACLVB/CGSLB - liberal.
Note how these ideologies roughly correspond to old political parties. Catholic , as an example, has lost most of its religious meaning.
The unions also tend to strike together, causing sector strikes over the whole nation.
