DEFINITION.
Trade Union means any combination, whether
temporary or permanent, formed primarily for the
purpose of regulating the relations between
workmen and employers or between workmen
and workmen, or between employers and
employers,
or
for
imposing
restrictive
conditions on the conduct of any trade or
business, and includes any federation of two or
more Trade Unions.
SCENARIO IN INDIA.
The World Labour Report says that Indian trade
unions are too fragmented. As there are many
trade unions at the same industry, fighting for
same body of workers, the rivalry often becomes
bitter and violent.
As many trade unions are not affiliated to AIF the
exact amount of trade unions is not known.
Trade unionism in India suffers from ideological
differences, caste and regional considerations,
politicisation, inter-union rivalry, uneconomic size,
financial debility and dependence on outside
leadership.
CONTD
Narayan Lokhande was the father of Indias Trade
union movement. He created the Bombay
Millhands Associaton of India, Indias first
workers organization.
The first systematic attempt was in 1906 by
postal offices of Bombay and Calcutta.
The outcry of 1908 led to the abolition of the
INDENTURE system in 1922.
In early 20th century most common grievance was
the harsh labour conditions set by the British.
In 1924 there were 167 trade unions in India.
The Indian Trade Unions act of 1926 made it legal
for any 7 workers to combine in a trade union.
