Why Choose a Co-op?
Are you tired of the traditional corporate structure where the few at the top reap all the benefits while the rest struggle to make ends meet? Do you believe in the power of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace? Then a co-op may be the perfect fit for you.
What is a Co-op?
A co-op, short for worker cooperative, is a business owned and operated by its employees. This means that everyone who works for the company is also an owner, sharing in the profits and decision-making processes equally and democratically.
The Benefits of a Co-op
One of the main reasons to choose a co-op over a traditional business is its high survival rate. According to research, worker cooperatives have a 3-year survival rate of 87%, compared to only 48% for conventional businesses. This is because everyone has a stake in the success of the company and is motivated to work together towards its growth and sustainability.
Additionally, co-ops are built on the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion. This means that everyone's voice is heard and valued, regardless of their background or position within the company. This creates a more inclusive and supportive work environment, leading to higher job satisfaction and productivity.
