The distribution of employee participation schemes at the workplace
Article Abstract:
Encouraging employees to become involved in schemes within the workplace environment is found to help increase performance and productivity although the individual nature of organisations appears to result in some schemes being more successful than others. Organisations where consultation is widespread tend to favour representative participation which involves employees playing an equal role in incentive schemes. Large, high-tech firms favoured schemes which resulted in a financial bonus for participants.

Employee share ownership and performance: golden path or golden handcuffs?
Article Abstract:
An analysis of the 1998 Workplace Employee Relations survey was used in investigating the role of employee stock ownership on the employee's commitment and retention. It was found that share ownership is not an important factor in commitment, but it does have a positive effect on employee retention. The role of lower turnover in the company's performance is evaluated.
