Guide to employee share plans
Discover your options with our comprehensive guide to employee share plans:
- Enterprise management incentives share options
Looking for a way to provide your employees with the opportunity to share in company growth and benefit from Business Asset Disposal Relief (previously known as Entrepreneurs’ Relief) like the main shareholders?
- Company share option plans (CSOP)
CSOPs are share incentives that allow companies to grant tax-advantaged share options to selected employees.
- Share incentive plans
A share incentive plan (SIP) is a tax efficient way of providing shares to employees. These plans can provide employees with up to £9,000 worth of shares, potentially tax-free, whilst also increasing the employer’s after-tax profits.
- Employee ownership trusts
Employee ownership trusts enable a business owner to sell a controlling interest in a company to a trust for the benefit of employees, with tax relief for the owner potentially resulting in a 0% tax charge on the sale, and tax-free bonuses may also be available for the employees.
