Shared Ownership

We are an employee-owned business; this means you are a ‘Co-owner’ of BrisDoc. Instead of having more traditional ‘shareholders’, all of BrisDoc’s shares are owned by the ‘Employee-Owned Trust’, which holds the shares on behalf of all employees. This means that you, as employees, collectively own the company and have a real influence over the direction and success of our services.

Being a co-owner comes with financial benefits, too. You can find out more about our bonuses in the Co-owner Benefits Handbook.

Co-owners Council

The Co-owners Council has representatives from each service and has many key roles that allow you to participate as a co-owner. This includes:

• Discussing issues that are prevalent to your work and generating ideas for recommendation
• Being a sounding board for company decisions
• Creating an additional channel of communication between co-owners and the Board

Getting Involved

There are plenty of other opportunities to get involved and have your say about the direction of the organisation. One of these is the yearly Our Voice staff survey, where all co-owners are asked for their feedback on their experience at BrisDoc, plus an opportunity to submit suggestions on how we can improve our services.

If you have a passion for the environment and climate change, you could join the Green Board, or if you are an advocate for Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion, join our EDI Group. To have a say on where we donate our charity funding, join the Community Fund committee. Contact workforcesupport@brisdoc.org to discuss any of these opportunities.

If you have any further suggestions, use the Suggestion Box and your idea will be forwarded to the relevant team.
