Preliminary communication

Opposed or common interest in a company?

Šime Ivanjko

Abstract

The author starts from the fact that there are differences of interest between business organisations and companies and points to the reasons for these differences and their types. Different interests are reflected in the interest of workers in business organisations and the need to create good working conditions, which is contrary to the interest of company members whose aim is profit. In order to protect these differences of interest it is common to have a bicameral system of management in Europe in which the rights are represented by the interest of a business organisation, the assembly represents interests of company and its members, while a supervisory board acts as an arbitrator between the different interests stated above. Introducing a unicameral system of management into companies is seen as an attempt to cover up the existence of these interests which will result in a radically different relationship between the social environment and direct participants in the phenomenon of the company.
