Prince William Board of County Supervisors proclaims October as Employee-Ownership Month

Employee stock ownership plans help people across America share in the nation’s prosperity and growth by helping employees accumulate stock in the businesses where they work at no cost. 

Objective research shows that employee ownership increases productivity, employee retention and engagement while providing strong and secure retirement that supports families and retirees.

The Prince William Board of County Supervisors recently proclaimed October as Employee-Ownership Month to celebrate employee ownership of Prince William County companies.

Employee ownership, a powerful incentive for Americans to make the best of their talents and energies at work, has been shown to promote job growth and provide an incentive for employees to make the best of their talents at work, strengthening competitiveness and boosting profits.

Employee ownership helps narrow the equality gap, increases vocational training and benefits employees and companies alike.
