Your Rights
You have the right to advocate for better working conditions, including higher wages, right to protection at work, right to participate in a charge or case, or to ask questions.
You can also choose to be represented by a union to negotiate with employers on wages, hours, labor disputes, leave time, and health benefits.
ALRB oversees the process for workers to choose a union through either an election or by signing authorization cards.
Protected Activity
Also known as concerted activity, the Agricultural Labor Relations Act (Act) gives farm workers the right to engage in protected activity, which means the right to act together to improve their working lives.
