Explanation:
Upon further consideration, I think your context requires this translation. It's about stock option plans, so the "Berechtigung" would refer to eligibility. If "option holder" were meant, then I think they would have used "Optionsinhaber," which comes up on various web-searches (check the link below).

Alternative construction: "An employee who is eligible for the stock option plan . . ."

For the most part, I\'ve seen \"eligible\" used in the context of a stock option plan, but I would think \"entitled\" would work here as well.
