La démocratie au travail n’est pas une utopie : elle existe déjà.
SCOP, SCIC, codétermination… Partout où les salariés décident, les entreprises sont plus résilientes, plus innovantes et plus justes.

Alors pourquoi la France reste-t-elle bloquée sur un modèle hiérarchique dépassé ?

Démocratie au travail : un autre modèle est possible

Quand les salariés participent réellement aux décisions, les entreprises deviennent plus résilientes, plus innovantes et souvent plus justes.

Aside from quitting their job, what people in this situation can do in their out-of-workplace mode to contribute to systemic change, if in a country without #Codetermination [1] or with a weak tradition of cooperatives [2][3], is join orgs/networks that campaign for legislation for codetermination, cooperatives, other #WorkplaceDemocracy [4].

I assume that graph is for the US?

Don't forget #Codetermination - worker representation on corporate boards of directors [1] - which exists in the majority (not the US) of OECD countries in some form or other. That's complementary to unions: it's direct workers' participation in the top level of power.

It was time again for the annual general assembly of our shareholders and the dinner that followed. 🤝 Being a shareholder of our company shows that employees want to do more than just be employed by us – they can have their say and weigh in on important business decisions. ✅ By the way: after the general assembly in our office, we enjoyed a delicious meal at the DAR restaurant in Zurich. We are already looking forward to next year! 🚀 #assembly #shareholder #codetermination #company #nine

Le désastre Volkswagen met en lumière les limites de la «codétermination» à l’allemande

La catastrophe que vivent actuellement #Volkswagen et ses salariés est aussi l’échec de la «#codétermination» qui constitue le cœur du compromis entre capital et travail en Allemagne. Les contre-pouvoirs n’ont pas joué et c’est une leçon pour la gauche occidentale.

Truman released the figures proving that higher wages didn't have to come with higher prices. GM caved. Workers got their raise. Truman touched the "third rail of American capitalism" - #CoDetermination, the idea that workers should have a say in how their employers ran their businesses.

Co-determination is common in other countries - notably Germany - but American capitalists are violently allergic to the idea.

My book is finished!
