A Catayst For Change
Employee ownership is an arrangement in which an employee gains ownership of equity (otherwise known as stock or shares) in a company, thereby acquiring the opportunity to benefit from future cash flows generated by the company.
“We are developing the EO Index at a turning point in the country where government redistribution programs can’t fix a systemic failure in the marketplace and Americans have increasingly lost faith in economic mobility for all.”
— Bill Mundell, Work to Own Founder and Chairman
