The Francisco Bilbao Workers Party (Spanish: Partido Obrero Francisco Bilbao) was a political party in Chile. The party was established in 1898, and was named after Francisco Bilbao.[1] The party was founded by Ricardo Guerrero, who was inspired by Marxian theory.[2][3] Local branches of the party were established in sixteen cities.[4] The programme of the party was published in 1899, with a clear anti-militarist and anti-clerical orientation.[5]

The Santiago de Chile-based newspaper El Trabajo of Alejandro Gonzalez was linked to the party.[6][7]

The party was a precursor of the Socialist Party founded in 1901.[1][8]
