More on worker-owned businesses

as a follow-up to my post from last tuesday, here's a preview of a documentary to be released in july this year...

SHIFT CHANGE - Putting Democracy to Work - preview

At a time when many are disillusioned with big banks and big business, the economic crisis and growing inequality in our country, employee ownership offers a real solution for workers and communities. Shift Change: Putting Democracy to Work is a new documentary (to be released in July, 2012) that highlights worker-owned enterprises in North America and in Mondragon, Spain. The film couldn’t be more timely, as 2012 has been declared by the U.N. as the “International Year of the Cooperative.”
