The Agricultural Labor Relations Board (ALRB) is an agency of the California state government that administers the California Agricultural Labor Relations Act, which establishes collective bargaining for farmworkers in the state.[1] The ALRB has two functions: To conduct, oversee, and certify representation elections, and to investigate unfair labor practice (ULP) charges and pursue remedies.[1] Administrative law judges and agency staff adjudicate most cases, with the five-member Board serving as a final arbiter.[1] The ALRB is overseen by the California Labor and Workforce Development Agency.[2]
