Agricultural Employment Relations Board (AERB)

What is the purpose of the Board?

The Agricultural Employment Relations Board (AERB) was established in 1993 to provide a means to collectively bargain which is fair and equitable to agricultural employers, labor organizations and employees. The Board oversees a process by which the agricultural community may engage in labor organization activities and fair elections and by which declaration may be made whether certain acts are unfair labor practices and therefore subject to legal intervention.

The Board is comprised of seven members (and two alternates): two agricultural employers/management; two organized agricultural labor representatives and three public members.
