CEO executive director top management comp Part VI line 15A

“The Executive Directors compensation is determined by the Board based on bi-annual performance review, which consists of both written submission by all Directors, which is reviewed by ACLUF of MAs chairman, Union Board President, and Union Vice President. Based on this performance review, the Directors determine and approve any salary increase.”

Other officer or key employee compensation Part VI line 15B

“For existing staff, compensation reviews are completed 2 times a year. During ACLUM and ACLUFMs annual budgeting and performance review, salary levels are reviewed against other ACLU affiliates of the same size.National ACLU also provides results from an annual salary survey and that data is considered during the annual budgeting and staff review process. For new positions, we gather internal and external data from other non-profits of similar size and type to ensure staff compensation is in line with other ACLU affiliates and other non-profits of similar size and type. During the staff review, staff compensation is increased by COLA, performance or adjustment increases. Increases are limited based on an approved pool for increase in the annual budget. The budget is approved by the Board.”
