Recommends the changes in the compensation structure (grades) based on the market changes. 3. Completes a review and evaluation of newly created positions to recommend a grade placement to the committee for its discussion and approval. On a bi-annual basis, the external consultant completes a detailed review of all other designated system executives' compensation and benefits. This group includes all top management officials, other officers and key leaders of the organization. The review includes recommendations to the committee on any changes necessary in either specific compensation or compensation structure to ensure market competitiveness, reasonableness and internal equity. Upon recommendations from the independent external firm, the executive compensation committee makes final compensation decisions. Additionally, the executive compensation committee reviews all compensation payments for excess benefit transactions. The discussion and decisions of the committee are documented and formalized in the committee minutes and maintained on record.
