Can employees sell their shares to the Employee Benefit Trust while still employed?
This would not usually be permitted, as the company would wish all the employees to hang onto their shares while employed at the company so as to maximise the benefits of employee ownership on trading performance. However, in larger companies after the scheme has been in operation for a while, it is possible to operate on internal market in the shares, through the EBT, so that buyers and sellers among the workforce can be matched.
