United Voice was an Australian trade union from 1992 to 2019. It merged with the National Union of Workers to form the United Workers Union in 2019. United Voice was part of the Labor Left faction of the Australian Labor Party.[2]

The union was established in 1992 as the Liquor, Hospitality and Miscellaneous Union, following the merge of the Federated Miscellaneous Workers' Union of Australia and Federated Liquor and Allied Industries Employees' Union of Australia. It was renamed United Voice from 1 March 2011.[3]
