companies often outperform              
non-employee-owned companies and show   
greater resiliency during challenging   
economic conditions2 ,whereas           
employee-owned companies face lower     

staff turnover1 and workers experience

financial security2 and ,whereas        
employee-owned companies have a rich    
history in communities across the
