The Board is responsible for reviewing and approving the compensation for all executive and key employees of the organization (CEO, CFO and any other employee(s) in order to ensure compliance and review pursuant to IRS 990 mandates). Additional responsibilities also include the management of the performance review and compensation determination process for the CEO of the organization. Recommendations for salary and benefits are based on a review of comparability data for similarly situated organizations.
