Any group of nine or more persons can form a Trade Union. However no Trade Union of the workmen shall be registered unless at least 100% or 100, which ever is less, persons engaged or employed in the Establishment or industry with which it is connected are the members of such trade union on the date of making of application for registration.



 

The minimum age limit for membership of a Trade Union is 15 years unless the rules of a particular trade union provide for higher age limit. However for being an office bearer the person has to be above 18 years of age.

REgistering a trade Union is governed by the Indian Trade Unions Act, 1926 as the legislation regulating the trade unions is the Indian Trade Unions Act, 1926 . The Act deals with the registration of trade unions, their rights, their liabilities and responsibilities as well as ensures that their funds are utilised properly. It gives legal and corporate status to the registered trade unions. However, registering a trade union dose not bestow recognition to the union unless it is duly recognised by the concerned department. The detailed procedural requirements can be perused in the Indian Trade Unions Act, 1926.
