In May 2007 it joined with another union, the TGWU, to form a bigger union called Unite. So in British news from before 2007, AMICUS is this union; after that, the name is mostly history.

The union took a Latin word meaning “friend.” Though actually, English also has amicus in law, short for amicus curiae, “friend of the court” — a lawyer who advises a court without being one of the two sides.
The union這個工會 took a Latin word用了一個拉丁字 meaning "friend."意思是「朋友」。Though actually不過其實, English英文 also has amicus in law在法律上也有amicus這個字, short for是...的縮寫 amicus curiae「amicus curiae」, "friend of the court"「法庭之友」——a lawyer一位律師 who advises a court在不屬於任何一方的情況下給法庭提供意見的 without being one of the two sides。
That is a different word; this entry is the old union.
