The Socialist Workers' Party (French: Parti socialiste des travailleurs, PST; Arabic: حزب العمال الاشتراكي, romanized: hizb aleummal alaishtirakii; Kabyle: Akabar Anemlay n Yixeddamen) is an Algerian political party. Founded in 1989 by the Revolutionary Communist Group, itself established by a group of Trotskyist students in 1974, the PST remains affiliated with Fourth International, a Trotskyist international.
In the 2007 Algerian parliamentary election, the PST won 0.75% of the vote, meaning it did not receive any of the 389 seats available.
