National Labor Relations Board

The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is a special group of people whose job is to make sure everyone in the United States gets fair treatment at work. That includes making sure employers treat their employees fairly, and that employees have the right to join together in a union if they want to. The NLRB also makes sure employers and unions follow the rules when it comes to negotiating pay, benefits, and working conditions. If someone thinks their rights as an employee have been violated, they can ask the NLRB for help. The NLRB will then look into the situation and decide if the rules were followed.
