It's not mandatory, but I'm pretty sure they give companies incentives for doing it, some help with their taxes or something. It's mainly just to help with all the money the government has to dish...

Worker's Self Management

Hi, just wondering about worker's self management. I've seen a few members on this board call it left liberal, or be a bit derisive to it in general. I'm not sure I understand the criticism, could...
