The '''Motor Industry Combined Workers' Union''' (MICWU) was a [[trade union]] representing workers in vehicle manufacturing and servicing, and also petrol attendants, in South Africa.
The union was founded in 1961, to represent "coloured" workers who had previously been part of another union, as the unions were compelled to divide on racial lines.<ref name="fes">Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 2)</ref> The new union affiliated to the [[Trade Union Council of South Africa]], and by 1980, it had 13,135 members.
