The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is an independent federal agency created in 1935 to enforce U.S. labor law, specifically the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). ⭐
Its primary function is to protect the rights of private-sector employees to organize, join unions, bargain collectively, and act together to improve wages and working conditions, as well as to prevent and remedy unfair labor practices committed by both employers and unions[1][2][3].
In summary, the NLRB is central to U.S. labor relations, protecting rights, regulating union representation, and resolving labor disputes to foster fair and stable labor-management relations[1][3][2].
