The fact that an employers' organisation is under the direct or indirect control of a trade union is an indication that it is not a genuine employers' organisation. Factors that would indicate that the employers' organisation is under the control of a trade union are—

(a) that any of the officials or office -bearers of the employers' organisation are officials or office -bearers of a trade union;
(b) that the employers' organisation operates from the same premises and shares facilities with a trade union.
