The Association of Western Pulp and Paper Workers (AWPPW) is a labor union in the western United States that was affiliated with the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America. The Association of Western Pulp and Paper Workers disaffiliated from the Carpenters in 2023. It was established 60 years ago in September 1964, when West Coast rank-and-file members of the International Brotherhood of Pulp, Sulphite, and Paper Mill Workers became dissatisfied with the conduct of wage negotiations by international vice-presidents and those of another international union, the United Papermakers and Paperworkers, with whom a Uniform Labor Agreement had been negotiated. The dissatisfaction was a result of the international Vice Presidents announcing that they were taking over the United Labor Association bargaining session. They established a new union, the Association of Western Pulp and Paper Mill Workers. Litigation followed, a NLRB election was conducted in October 1964, and the Western organization was certified as the Uniform Labor Agreement bargaining agent. In 1994, it affiliated with the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America.
