Flag of the Azerbaijan Trade Unions Confederation

The Azerbaijan Trade Unions Confederation (ATUC, Azərbaycan Həmkarlar İttifaqları Konfederasiyası) is the national trade union organization of Azerbaijan. The ATUC encompasses more than 17,000 trade units across the country, has a membership of more than 1.3 million, and is headquartered in the capital city of Baku, according to the Wikipedia entry. The ATUC is itself a member of the International Trade Union Confederation. According to the organization's website (translated into English through Google), the organization was founded on 5 February 1993. On 24 February 1994, the law "On Trade Unions" was adopted by the Azerbaijan government and went into effect. (https://ahik.org/en/)

The flag consists of the organization's circular seal centered on a white field.

While the first source does display the flag with yellow crescent and star, the other two display flags on which these are white. That means that there seem to exist two variants of the flag, one of which is either unofficial or an earlier official one.
