It was functional since 1972 and has the history of four decades of selfless service in the empowerment of the unorganized workers of the State. KLM outreach to the grass roots is ensured through the diocesan network of KLM and the network of the workers forums. Some of the workers forums organized by KLM have now been registered as the independent trade unions in par with any other trade unions in the State. KLM has been recognized as the founder member of the Workers India Federation (WIF), the national body of the different labour movements and NGOs working with unorganized labourers
