Abstract
This sociological research analysis was conducted during the year 2017 in the month of August to December. This study explored some factors in relation to alcohol & tobacco use among labourer class (from 18 years – below 50) age group. The present case study has been done on labour class working in the organized & unorganized sector and was carried out in an industrial town of Baddi, Himachal Pradesh which is known as the pharmaceutical capital of India. This study was focused on the socio-economic implication of alcohol & tobacco on the life of industrial worker’s family. The purposive sampling was used to decide the samples and three case studies were carried out with the help of some focused group discussion conducted with the community members. The target population was the user (both alcohol & tobacco) & one of the family members residing with him/her. This involved purposively chosen families who narrated the stories about alcohol & tobacco and it’s harmfully impacts on them. These families helped the researcher to observe some qualitative findings based on these two intoxicants. The present result suggested that socio-cultural, religion-custom, beliefs factors played an important role in context with alcohol & tobacco consumption. This affects the marriage stability, emotional well-being of the child, user’s behaviour, misuse of these two intoxicants.
