• Single Empoyee Worker Cooperative

    From Victor Roberts@21:1/5 to All on Sat Oct 9 18:06:20 2021
    I am filling out a form for COVID relief from my state government.

    My company is a C Corporation with a single employee, me. I also own
    100% of the stock in the company.

    One question on the form is whether or not my company is a "worker cooperative?"

    Well, all the workers, me, own all the stock, and all the workers
    participate in running the company and making all the decisions for
    the company.

    So, does that make my company a "worker cooperative," or do you need
    more than one emplyee?

    Thanks.

    Nope. There is a legal defiinition of a cooperative and special tax
    treatment.

    If you were a co-op, you'd know it.
