What is an ESOP?
An ESOP is a retirement plan—but also a way of living and running a company. For insights on both technical and cultural aspects of these plans—which provide benefits to employee owners, the company, the community, and exiting owners—and links to additional resources, see our web page titled What is an ESOP?

ESOPATHON is an employee ownership engagement and fundraising program for the Employee Ownership Foundation, held annually each fall through October’s Employee Ownership Month. 2023 marks the third annual ESOPATHON and each year your effort has grown – and we hope this year is the best yet!
Oct. 06
As we all know, October is Employee Ownership Month, my favorite time of year. It’s a time when ESOPs across the nation celebrate the pride, passion, and unity that we all feel as employee owners. It’s always inspiring and heartening for me to see the many different ways ESOPs engage with employee owners and their communities during EOM. Many ESOPs focus internally, with activities that celebrate their ownership culture and further educate employee owners about the unique value their ESOP provides.

Employee Owned
Dec. 02
Thank you to the more than 2,000 employee owners and ESOP professionals who attended Employee Owned 2022 at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas!

As companies re-open and the standards change for how to remain safe, communicating with employee owners will become even more important—and more challenging.
Program Research
Jun. 20
For nearly the last decade, the Employee Ownership Foundation has provided the funding necessary to collect data regarding employee ownership as part of the General Social Survey (GSS). This survey, and the data it produces, is considered the gold-standard for data used by academic researchers interested in studying the American population. The data is openly available and has subsequently been used by academics to better understand Americans’ attitudes toward employee ownership and the impact it has on their lives. This new report published by Dr. Joseph Blasi and Dr. Doug Kruse of Rutgers University analyzed the newest release of GSS data and observed the overwhelming and uniquely bi-partisan support for employee ownership across all demographics and citizen profiles.
ESOP Association, COVID-19
Jun. 10
If you are like me, much of the last three months has been spent thinking about how to best navigate your business, your job, and your family through the COVID-19 crisis that continues to grip the world with uncertainty and consequence. If it has been said once, it has been said a million times—these are difficult and challenging times, to be sure. But they do not need to be without direction or, even, hopefulness for the future.
