Workers cooperative is an enterprise in which workers share in the profits and it is a business in which the workers retain a majority control of the enterprise control is exercised democratically on the basis of one person, one role, Membership is open as far as possible to all workers and there are limit on the return to capital invested in the enterprises.
Over the years, capital; has hired lab our and treated it like an expendable factors of production same as any other factor, capital has explored labour and subjected it to the imperialism of profit maximization capital has claimed all the authority and all met profit while disclaiming full liability for the debts of he enterprise incase of liquidation.

As long as the enterprise can cover its costs and break even they fell free, to pursuer their social objectives. The capital assets of an industrial cooperative should be jealously guarded. It should maintain intact and progressively expanded and developed facilities. The aim should be to catch up with completing capitalist out lifts in terms of capital base. With drawing members should be required to leave their share capital behind. If members decided to dissolve their society, it should not be in order to share them asset.
Both the lam should absolutely forbid the saving of the net assets among member upon dissolution. Net assets should rather be transferred to another workers in industrial co-operative.
