The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is an independent US federal agency that enforces labor laws related to collective bargaining and unfair labor practices. While not directly involved in manufacturing or launching, the NLRB's actions can significantly impact companies in the space industry, as demonstrated in cases involving SpaceX. The NLRB investigates charges, conducts elections for union representation, and ensures employers comply with labor laws, protecting the rights of employees in the private sector.
