In benchmarking jobs in the market has been in place since 2004. In order to service its members, gs1 us, inc. Must be able to recruit employees with appropriate skills and background from organizations that are similar in size and scope to its member base. For the top executive positions, market data from organizations with an average size of $500 million to $1 billion in revenue is the benchmark group. From time to time, when data does not exist in this range, we must expand the size of the benchmark group. This comparison group of organizations closely reflects gs1 us, inc.'s labor market for executive talent and recognizes the pay limitations that are imposed on tax-exempt organizations. Approximately every two years, gs1 us completes a full market study of the executive level positions. Gs1 us subscribes to the willis towers watson 2018 general industry executive compensation survey - u.s. To obtain this market data. From this data, the compensation department creates salary ranges, merit budgets, and bonus targets. This data, along with individual executive compensation levels, is provided annually to the compensation committee of the board and then to the board planning committee for final approval. Individuals involved in the compensation determination process are independent with respect to each arrangement at issue and will recuse themselves from the process in the event a conflict of interest arises (i.e., compensation committee members do not participate in setting their own specific compensation arrangements). Gs1 us, inc. Maintains records of the compensation determination process, both in the board minutes and human resources department records.”
