The ESOP Association (TEA) represents the interests of ESOP companies in the United States, including small and large companies in every sector and in all 50 states. In total, ESOP companies employ more than 10.6 million people and contribute $1.377 trillion to the U.S. economy annually. The ESOP Association is the powerful voice of the ESOP community and the leading advocate for a policy agenda that helps employee owned companies compete, grows employee ownership here and abroad, and creates jobs across the United States. Our VisionWe believe that employee ownership improves American competitiveness…that it increases productivity through greater employee participation in the workplace…that it strengthens our free enterprise economy and creates a broader distribution of wealth…and that it maximizes human potential by enhancing the self-worth, dignity, and well-being of our people.Therefore, we envision an America where employee ownership is widely recognized as a catalyst for economic prosperity…where the great majority of employees own stock in the companies where they work…and where employee ownership enables employees to share in the wealth they help create.And we look for our nation to become for all the world an example of prosperity with justice through employee ownership.Our MissionTo educate and advocate about employee ownership with emphasis on ESOPs.Looking for Insurance? https://esopassociation.org/TEA-health-insuranceFollow us on Twitter: @ESOPAssociation
