The National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), a federal law passed in 1935, established workers' rights to organize and bargain collectively.
Below are five examples of rights protected by the NLRA:
- Forming or attempting to form a union among employees
- Joining a union, whether the company recognizes the union or not
- Assisting a union to organize employees
- Engaging in a strike under lawful conditions
- Refraining from activity on behalf of a union
