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.
