Other forms include worker co-operatives, in which workers both own and fully control the company, and co-determination, in which control of the firm is split between shareholders and workers. Labor unions — while they do not give workers direct control or authority in decision-making — are a more indirect form, providing worker voice via collective bargaining with employers over wages and working conditions. Giving workers a "seat at the table" can ensure that companies’ decisions prioritize workers’ wellbeing, such as firing fewer workers during recessions.
