What was an activity of the national war labour board?

The National War Labor Board (NWLB) was established during World War I to mediate labor disputes and ensure the continuous production of war materials. One of its key activities was to settle conflicts between labor unions and employers, often by enforcing policies that supported fair wages and reasonable working hours. The NWLB aimed to prevent strikes and labor unrest that could disrupt wartime production, thereby helping to maintain a stable workforce. Additionally, it promoted the rights of workers, including support for unionization and collective bargaining.
