Agricultural Labor Relations Board

The Agricultural Labor Relations Board (ALRB) is a government agency in California responsible for overseeing labor relations in the agricultural sector. Its main role is to protect the rights of farmworkers, allowing them to organize and negotiate for better working conditions and pay. The ALRB facilitates elections for farmworker unions, investigates unfair labor practices, and ensures compliance with labor laws. Established in 1975, the board aims to balance the interests of workers and employers, promoting fair treatment and fostering a stable labor environment in agriculture.
