The National Labor Relations Act of 1935, also known as the Wagner Act, granted employees the right to organize and collectively bargain with their employers. This led to the growth of employee unions in the United States. The Equal Pay Act of 1963 aimed to eliminate sex-based wage discrimination, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 aimed to eliminate discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, and the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 aimed to ensure safe working conditions. While each of these pieces of legislation had an impact on the workplace, none of them specifically prompted the growth of employee unions as the National Labor Relations Act did.
