Other forms of employee ownership
Stock options and similar plans (stock appreciation rights, phantom stock, and restricted stock, primarily) are common in most industrial and some developing countries. Only in the U.S., however, is there a widespread practice of sharing this kind of ownership broadly with employees, mostly (but not entirely) in the technology sector (
Whole Foods and
Starbucks also do this, for instance). The tax rules for employee ownership vary widely from country to country. Only a few, most notably the U.S., Ireland, and the UK, have significant tax laws to encourage broad-based employee ownership.
[41] In India, employee stock option plans are called "ESOPs.

Woodman's Markets was started in 1919, as a produce stand in Janesville, WI. In 1979 & 1984 Woodman's opened two stores in Madison, WI; these were the first to use the warehouse model now used at all locations. Today, Woodman's operates fifteen stores throughout Wisconsin and northern Illinois. Woodman's converted into an entirely Employee Owned operation in 1998. In March 2008, Woodman's hit $1 billion in annual sales.
