If it is publicly traded you can buy it on the stock market from any broker. If it isn't publicly traded then you probably can't buy any, ask the current owner if they want to sell part of the company.
You may not want to own part of a small company since you will always be out voted, they can vote themselves bonuses until there is no profit and your share could be worthless. Also if the company goes belly up you lose your investment the same day you lose your job.

If its a publicly traded company contact the investor relations department. They may have a program for employees to buy stock directly from the company. If its a private company, unless they have an Employee Stock Ownership Program, (ESOP) where you get stock while you work for them but have to sell it back when you leave the company, you're probably out of luck.
