Employee share ownership impacts top executives compensation


A research project at the University of Aix-Marseilles in France highlights the impact of employee share ownership on the level of compensation of top executives in listed companies.
Employee share ownership affects the organization of work, policies and management practices, leading ultimately to an impact on corporate performance.
The results of the study show that employee share ownership  plays a direct and indirect role on the determinants of executive compensation, with a significant moderating impact.
In addition, the presence of employee shareholders directors on the Board of Directors tends to limit executive compensation.
