Employee director compensation as a revealer of the ambiguities of their role[La rémunération des administrateurs salariés, révélatrice des ambiguïtés de leur rôle]

The analysis of the compensation that employee directors may receive for their directorship reveals the underlying stakes at the core of their mandate. On one hand, it raises questions about the relationships employee directors maintain with employees and other employee representatives. On the other hand, it raises questions about their relationships with other directors, by whom they wish to be recognised as legitimate interlocutors. Ultimately, employee directors are torn between two conceptions of their role, a tension illustrated by the diverse meanings they ascribe to their compensation.
