Collection material in English
The National War Labor Board, a tripartite body established in 1942 by President Franklin
D. Roosevelt, was charged with acting as an arbitration tribunal in labor-management
dispute cases, thereby preventing work stoppages which might hinder the war effort.
It was also responsible for determining wage adjustments in accordance with anti-inflationary
wage stabilization criteria and policies.
The Board was initially divided into 12 Regional Administrative Boards which handled
both labor dispute settlement and wage stabilization functions for specific geographic
regions. The National Board further decentralized in 1943, when it established special
tripartite commissions and panels to deal with particular industries on a national
basis.
This collection reflects the Board's decision-making and internal communication processes,
and documents Board policy on no-strike pledges, grievance and arbitration procedures,
union security, management rights, maintenance of membership, anti-inflationary wage
control policy, and fringe benefits.
The bulk of the collection consists of materials pertaining to labor dispute settlement
cases. Includes awards, decisions, and reports and recommendations of mediation panels;
hearings transcripts, and documents used as evidence in hearings; and statements,
briefs and answers of employers and unions. Documents generated by the War Labor Board
also include memoranda, press releases, bulletins and reports concerning directives
for case handling, administrative procedures and regulations, and summaries of Board
actions and decisions.
Access to the collections in the Kheel Center is restricted. Please contact a reference
archivist for access to these materials.
This collection must be used in keeping with the Kheel Center Information Sheet and
