The paper attempts to evaluate the significance of different factors determining the trade union participation in the organised leather industry in Kolkata. The research has been conducted based on three sample leather units engaged in three different commercial functions and these units have been selected based on certain predetermined parameters, so that the research can be conducted with maximum precision and a more or less representative outcome can be visible. The research concludes that certain factors are significantly determining the current rate of trade union participation and others are not. However, the research accepts its own limitations and encourages further studies based on the observation made through this paper.
