When the company's ceo was hired, the compensation committee also reviewed an industry executive compensation survey for comparable positions and created contemporaneous substantial documentation of compensation in an executed employment agreement which was also reviewed by the chairman of the audit committee. Annual salary increases and bonuses, if applicable, are determined by the human resources and executive team, and the immediate supervisor of each employee. The chief executive officer's annual salary adjustments and incentive bonus are also reviewed annually by the audit committee which includes the chairman, vice chairman, treasurer, and secretary. Salary increases are based on market conditions and generally range between 2 and 4 percent.the chief executive officer determines the compensation of the organization's executive team. Compensation for the other officers and key employees is set by the chief executive officer, and the chief people officer. Comprehensive salary surveys are completed every few years.
