The Andalusian Workers' Union ({{langx|es|Sindicato Andaluz de Trabajadores}}, {{lang|es|SAT}}) is a trade union in the autonomous community of Andalusia, Spain. The SAT was established in 2007 and it is supported by 20,000 affiliates.{{cite web|url= http://kaosenlared.net/territorios/t/andalucia/item/44474-sat-los-500-jornaleros-imputados.html |title= SAT: Los 500 jornaleros imputados |publisher= Kaos en la Red |date= 22 January 2013 | language = es |access-date= 1 September 2013}} The SAT's ideological basis are anti-capitalism, internationalism and Andalusian nationalism. It is led by Diego Cañamero.

The Andalusian Workers' Union is known by its "Robin Hood" style protest actions. In August 2013, SAT activists raided a Carrefour supermarket in Seville and took ten shopping carts filled with school materials like pencils, erasers and notebooks which will be distributed to "families in need".{{cite news|url=http://elpais.com/elpais/2013/08/30/inenglish/1377875386_327683.html |title= Andalusian union in new supermarket protest raid |publisher= El Pais|date= 30 August 2013 |access-date= 1 September 2013|newspaper= El País }}
