Creating shareholder value for American employees and their companies
Work to Own is building the Employee Ownership (EO) Index to incentivize public companies in the U.S. to optimize the deployment of equity across the pay scale
Employee Ownership (EO) Index
The EO Index is a market–driven information tool that equips public companies to optimize their employee equity structures:
Enables American employees to generate wealth.
Enhances shareholder value of companies.
Our Mission
To enhance economic mobility in the United States by equipping public companies with actionable information.
THE OPPORTUNITY: Companies can boost economic mobility by broadening incentive–based equity across the pay scale.
THE WIN–WIN: Our research shows that optimising broad–based employee equity programs enhances shareholder value.
33% of S&P 500 firms offer only purchase–based plans, such as ESPPs and ESOPs
45% of S&P 500 companies offer equity to non-executive employees
RSU configurations account for 60% of equity grant plans
11% offer grant–based equity, such as RSUs and options, to non-executive employees
Options–only plans account for only 3% of equity grant plans
R&D intensity is the key predictor of deploying equity grants beyond management
