Background
This change would ensure company success is shared fairly by everyone. In our view, too often, company profits reward only executives while workers see little benefit. We believe sharing bonuses fairly would improve morale, retention, and productivity, while boosting spending and reducing wealth inequality. We think that when employees share in success, businesses thrive, communities grow, and the UK economy strengthens. This simple reform could create a fairer, more motivated and balanced workforce.
