“Masshire hampden county workforce board, inc. Was organized as a corporation with voting and nonvoting members. The members were initially appointed by the mayor of the city of springfield, ma. Thereafter, pursuant to the bylaws, "the members annually elect, as directors of the corporation, each of the members."”

“Some decisions of the governing body are subject to approval by other persons outside of the organization. The mayor of the city of springfield cosigns any proposals to the state which masshire obtains on the city's behalf. As stated earlier, the mayor appointed the original members of the organization.”

“The form 990 will be reviewed initially by the organization's finance/audit committee. Once the 990 is accepted by the audit committee, the entire governing board will be provided via email with a link as to where they can access a complete copy of the 990 for review and comments prior to it being filed.”

“The organization regularly and consistently monitors and enforces compliance with the conflict of interest policy by asking the board before every vote if there is a perceived or real conflict with the parties involved. If yes, the member abstains from participating in the vote.”

“The process for determining the president/ceo's salary is as follows: the board chair and two other committee chairs conducted a compensation review study during april & may 2024. This group considered the survey data of other ceos of similar size non-profit organizations in addition to reviewing the ceo's performance in setting compensation. During 2025, the board completed a compensation review of the president & ceo.”

“The organization makes its form 1023 and 990 available for public inspection upon request.”
