This figure is then approved by the Board of Directors of the AADC as part of approving the overall operating budget for the organization. 2. Each AADC employee receives a performance evaluation by the person(s) to whom she reports, incorporating input from additional individuals with whom she works closely as appropriate. 3. Based on actual performance to the job assignment and achievement of annual goals, merit increases may be awarded, working within the organization's overall figure for compensation of all AADC staff and the needs of the operation.”
