George Smith (trade unionist)

Sir George Fenwick Smith (died November 1978) was a British trade unionist.

Born near Dundee, Smith worked as a carpenter and became active in the Amalgamated Society of Woodworkers. He also joined the Communist Party of Great Britain in the early 1940s but left it in 1954. He was elected general secretary of the Woodworkers in 1959. When the Woodworkers merged with other unions to form the Union of Construction, Allied Trades and Technicians, Smith became its first General Secretary, serving until his death in 1978.

He was knighted in the 1978 New Year Honours.
