The person with the conflict of interest is excluded from the discussion and approval of such transaction; 3. A competitive bid or comparable valuation exists; and 4. The board has determined that the transaction is in the best interest of the organization.”

“The compensation committee of the board is responsible for recommending performance objectives for the ceo, evaluating the ceo's performance, and recommending to the board the base salary, cash incentive bonus, and other compensation for the ceo of lifeworks. When making the recommendation, the committee relies on comparability data provided by internal hr staff and, from time to time, outside consultants. In 2024, lifeworks compensation committee engaged with an external consultant who conducted an executive compensation study including comparative peer group and presented findings. In determining cfo compensation, the compensation committee of the board and ceo engaged an outside consultant to gather and evaluate comparable market data who presented findings. The ceo made the final determination about appropriate compensation in consultation with the committee. For all other officers and key employees, lifeworks has a formal salary structure and annual adjustments are based upon movement in the local labor market. Human resources documents and measures changes in the market with local compensation surveys both in the non-profit and for-profit segments. The executive leadership team will establish annual salary increase recommendations based upon organizational affordability and performance. Current practice is to maintain a common increase date in the third quarter. Individual positions are assigned a pay grade based on applicable external labor markets and internal equity. Each pay grade has a corresponding salary range minimum, salary range mid-point (also referred to as market rate) and a salary range maximum. Grades assigned to positions may change if the market has moved as documented by a review of market data. Individual pay is reviewed at least annually with the goal of considering salary adjustments for employees whose pay falls substantially below the midpoint (market rate) if their performance and skills merit an increase in pay. The process described here was last completed in 2024.”
