Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is an independent federal agency created by Congress in 1935 under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). Its purpose is to administer U.S. labor law and to prevent and remedy unfair labor practices by employers and unions. The NLRB is not a federal board of union members and it does not establish or control U.S. labor law on its own.
