I am not sure which James you are referring to as there are many. If you mean either James the Greater or James the Least they were declared saints by the early Christian community.

St. George made the decision to stand strong in his faith and refuse to renounce Christianity, even when faced with the threat of death. This unwavering commitment led to his martyrdom and subsequent recognition as a Christian saint.
Pope Benedict XV made the final decision to canonize Joan of Arc in 1920.
Anne did not become a saint until she died at a VERY old age.
While I do not know the actual reason for James being made the patron of laborers, I can surmise that the following passage from the Epistle of St. James may have influenced the decision:"You have faith and I have works. Show me your faith apart from your works, and I by my works will show you my faith."There is a debate as to whether James actually wrote the Epistle or if it was written by someone else on his behalf. However, it is attributed to St. James and the writing is considered as canonical.
