(a)there is no inhibition in the contract of employment of the worker receiving the same from being the member of any trade union, and
(b)the said payments of higher wages or rates of pay or overtime or bonuses or the provision of other benefits are in accordance with the terms of a contract of employment and reasonably relate to services provided by the worker under that contract.
