Press Review
Much
new information about employee ownership in December 2006,
with 1.474 articles (on which 561 about stock options and
219 about workers' cooperatives). We made a selection of
remarkable articles in 13 countries: Austria, Canada,
Switzerland, Germany, France, India, Ireland, Italy, Mali,
Romania, United Kingdom, South Africa, USA.
The
scandals about stock options and directors' remunerations
got new developments in several countries.
In France, both main candidates to the French Presidency
used stock options as a major theme for the new electoral
campaign. On the other hand, the new French legislation
for employee ownership is now voted, giving more facilities
for employee buy-outs (Salariés, rachetez
votre entreprise !) Employee ownership had
to face conflictual developments in some major companies
(Safran, Eifage, Libération) and a new call was launched
for a European participative governance (Pour une gouvernance participative
européenne).
In Germany, supports for stronger employee ownership
seem to be growing. The SPD leaders made new proposals and
some unions' voices expressed positive reactions. Finally,
Bavarian Minister President Edmund Stoiber told about employee
ownership (as "Investivlohn") as an answer to
globalisation - just the same words as Gordon Brown some
years ago, the same as President Jacques Chirac some months
ago.
Austria seems also going to give stronger political
support to employee ownership. In Austrian Airlines, employees
could get a 10 to 20% share (same model as Flughafen Wien,
Voestalpine, etc), while new discussions occur about employee
ownership in AMAG.
In Italy also, employee ownership could be a good
way for Italian airlines Alitalia.
Ireland: Ryanair failed in its take over on Aer
Lingus, and the Sunday Times gave the last word of the whole
story (And finally...)
In India, successful employee buyouts in tea plantations
and a good ABC
of stock options
Mali: employee share ownership is developing in the
telecoms.
South Africa: new black economic empowerment deals
(BEE) through employee share ownership.
USA: SAIC - one of the biggest employee-owned company
in the world (43.000 workers) is now public (No More Secrets at SAIC). On the other hand,
value
of Employee Stock Option Grants Declines Sharply
Finally, the project of an employee buyout for Hoover failed,
in spite of Officials vow
to fight for Hoover
