ANNUAL
ECONOMIC SURVEY OF EMPLOYEE OWNERSHIP
IN EUROPEAN COUNTRIES - YEAR 2007
Employee
ownership is progressing faster and stronger across
Europe than anyone could expect. Considering recent
trends, employee ownership is going to double
within the next 5-10 years, from 8.2 millions
employee owners now to 16 millions, from 26.2%
of all employees in large European companies now
to 40-50%, and capitalisation held by employees
going to raise from 2.35% now to 4 - 4.5%. This
is the main conclusion of the first Annual Economic
Survey of Employee Ownership in European Countries.
