The Solomon Islands Council of Trade Unions (SICTU) is a national trade union center in the Solomon Islands.

It was created in the 1970s by the "Solomon Islands General Workers' Union" and had membership of over 90% of SI TUs. After the independence of SI, in 1978 the name was changed to the "Solomon Islands National Union of Workers", a name that is still in some use.

The SICTU is affiliated with the World Federation of Trade Unions.

In 1980s SICTU setuo the Solomon Islands Labour Party.
