Recent statutory and other developments in the United Kingdom seem to have stimulated the introduction of share‐ownership schemes for employees. This article considers the merits of such schemes, and their potential role within companies. The article also points up some weaknesses in the 1978 Finance Act, and suggests the need for caution on the part of those in industry who might contemplate the introduction of share‐ownership arrangements.
