<p>I have received no recent representations about ensuring the presence of workforce
representatives on Board of Directors of companies. Giving employees both a meaningful
stake and a ‘voice’ in the business can lead to growth and productivity benefits.
While what is right will vary from business to business, I therefore encourage employee
ownership. Guidance, model documents and links to further expert advice for businesses
and employees considering a move to employee ownership, are at:</p><p> </p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/employee-ownership-company-model-documentation"

enhanced employee wellbeing. Initiatives such as Engage for Success (<a href="http://www.engageforsuccess.org/"

practices into their workplaces.</p>
