Abstract

(VF)L’actionnariat salarié se développe de manière inexorable et tend à faire des salariés des acteurs incontournables de la gouvernance des entreprises. Face à cette transformation importante de l’actionnariat, les recherches les plus récentes évaluent de manière ambivalente les effets de l’actionnariat salarié. Cet article se focalise sur un phénomène jusqu’à présent très peu étudié : l’actionnariat salarié significatif c’est-à-dire l’incidence d’une présence majeure voire majoritaire des salariés dans le capital et au sein des organes de gouvernance. Nos résultats démontrent un effet négatif de l’actionnariat salarié significatif sur la performance économique des entreprises. Cet effet est renforcé par la présence d’administrateurs salariés dans les instances de gouvernance. Nos tests économétriques sont basés sur la méthode d’estimations des GMM en panel dynamique qui permet de traiter les problèmes d’endogénéité. Notre étude quantitative examine les 120 plus grandes entreprises françaises sur une période d’observation inédite (2000-2014). (VA)Employee stock ownership is a growing phenomenon and nowadays employees tend to play a key role in corporate governance. Researchers have largely documented this shift in ownership and corporate governance processes and they show that employee ownership has mitigated effects. In this article, we focus on situation of ownership where employees have significant shares and occupy majority positions. We show that in these contexts, employee ownership has negative consequences on firm performance. These negative consequences are reinforced when employees are represented in board of directors. We applied the dynamic panel GMM model which appears particularly well suited to deal with potential endogeneity problem. Our data encompasses the largest French listed companies (SBF 120) form 2000 to 2014.
