Employee Stock options?

I would like to preserve the percentage of ownership until the company has gone public. Can I be granted, let's say 1% of the company as options instead of a speific number of shares which would dilute my share if additional shares are issued. Also is it a %age of the shares issued or shares outstanding - what is the difference? Finally what grant is most tax effctive.
