Material and Methods: It is a field based cross sectional study conducted by interviewing 224 embroidery workers of small scale industries of an urban slum in Meerut from November 2012-to August 2013. Results: Most (74.99%) of the subjects were less than 35 years of age. All were married males and 78.13% were either illiterate or educated less than primary school level. Majority (87.05%) were current users of some sort of tobacco. The most common self reported health problem was musculoskeletal (37.94%) and respiratory illnesses (33.04%). Conclusion: These workers belonging to unorganized sector should be imparted health education regarding the importance of physical activity and also tobacco cessation.
