It is great that the board and the owners agreed to use the planned listing on Oslo Stock Exchange, to give our employees ownership of the company, so that they can also take part in any value creation, Thingbø concludes.
From January 2022, Zaptec will provide all employees with share bonus arrangements corresponding to 20% of their respective annual salaries. This means that everyone gets ownership of the company, but also the experience of investing, says Maiken Økland, Communications Manager at Zaptec.
The program is an initiative to encourage long-term engagement in the company, where we want to motivate our employees and deliver outstanding results together, Økland concludes. By working in the company for three years, you can sell the shares or continue to be a shareholder. Zaptec will pay all taxes, and the program will also be available for new employees, for the next three years.
The people in the company are our most important resource, says Anders Thingbø, CEO at Zaptec. We have an average age of 32 years among our employees. Our technology is developed by extremely skilled people who will become increasingly important when we expand to contribute to further increased electrification. It is great that the board and the owners agreed to use the planned listing on Oslo Stock Exchange, to give our employees ownership of the company, so that they can also take part in any value creation, Thingbø concludes.
