Coming from the perspective of "how would this come to pass", I like to start by imagining that we've passed a law for workplace democracy, and asking what would be legally provable someday. I'm becoming increasingly of the opinion that eventually democracy in firms will come down to some form of multi-stakeholder cooperative where consumers and workers will have to be given some form of legal oversight into governance and profit sharing if they can prove their position warrants it. I'm imagining that it will end up being deliberated by some form of civil court whether a given firm is democratic enough in how it responds to either/both consumer and worker governance. It would end up being a case each person in a given role would make for whether they should be in a position to have democratic control of a firm. For example if you live in a small town with only one grocery store, your limitation of choice makes it so you would have a right to petition and vote on what the store carries. If there are hundreds of small firms that you can do contract work for then maybe you wouldn't need to be part of the cooperative. Case law and precedent would follow and company legal teams would adapt.
