The European Employee Ownership EMP 100

Companies are ranked following their number of employees. Europe's largest companies that are 50% or more employee-owned through an ESOP, Share Purchase Plan, or other Broad-Based Ownership Plan, or as a workers' co-operative. Companies must be at least majority employee owned by at least 50% of their full-time employees or by an ESOP or profit sharing plan to qualify.

The list is based on information from web sites, newspaper accounts, and EFES members organizations in all countries. Employment numbers can change quickly; these data were compiled in 2005. Corrections and additions are welcomed, especially from companies themselves. Please send your information to marcmathieu@marcmathieu.be
