The Labor and Employment Relations Association (LERA), formerly the Industrial Relations Research Association (IRRA), is an organization for professionals in industrial relations and human resources. The organization has roughly 3,000 members.

LERA holds an annual membership and professional development meeting, as well as a national policy forum.

LERA offers a number of awards, recognitions and grants each year. Its most prestigious award is the John T. Dunlop Scholar Award. Two Dunlop Scholar Awards are given each year. One goes to an academic who makes the best contribution to international and/or comparative labor and employment research. A second award recognizes an academic for research that addresses an industrial relations/employment problem of national significance in the United States.

LERA publishes a number of research reports and books, as well as an annual compendium of research, an annual proceedings, a newsletter and a membership director. It also published the bi-annual journal, Perspectives on Work.
