Les actionnaires salariés

Author

Listed:
  • Philippe Desbrières

Abstract

The wage earner shareholding, to-day a matter of reflection, both from the side of the politicians and from that of the unions may give rise to a new kind of behaviour. Does the power the wage earner can gain thanks to his stocks lead to a control over the governance of the enterprise? Starting from a theoretical reflection and from enquiries, the author shows that this type of shareholding is a non negligible regulation mode in the conflict of interests.
