| Function: Trade Union (Federal) | ||
| The Australian Maritime Officers' Union was first known as the Mercantile Marine Officers' Association. A General Meeting of members held on 12 February 1904 agreed to adopt the name Merchant Service Guild of Australasia. The Guild was registered under the Commonwealth Conciliation & Arbitration Act of 1904 on 5 May 1905. It was the first employee organisation to be registered under this act. Despite a slight change of name to the Merchant Service Guild of Australia in 1957, the Guild operated unchanged until 1992 when it merged with the Australian Stevedoring Supervisors' Association to form the Australian Maritime Officers' Union. On 3 September 1957 the name of the union was changed to the Merchant Service Guild of Australia and in 1992 it merged with the Australian Stevedoring Supervisors' Association to form the Australian Maritime Officers' Union.
