reporting on employee involvement

There is no general legal obligation on employers to promote employee involvement. However, the Companies Act 1985 requires companies that employ more than 250 people to state in their annual reports what action, if any, they have taken in that year to promote employee involvement. This can be through information provision, consultation or financial participation in order to increase employees' awareness of the financial and economic factors affecting the company.
