The
European Federation of Employee Share Ownership (EFES)
has published its Annual Report, with the background
of the paradigm shift in employee ownership in Europe.
The Report provides an overview of the organisation’s
information efforts, publications, media presence, advocacy,
priorities and partnerships.
As the leading voice of employee ownership in Europe,
the EFES reaffirms the will to pay the same positive
attention to all forms of employee share ownership,
generally minority in the ownership of large companies
and increasingly often majority in the ownership of
SMEs.
The
EFES reaffirms our priorities with the aim of continuing
our work towards the implementation of employee ownership
in SMEs all over Europe..
