“Awcc works with the foraker group, and every few years will purchase the salary survey they offer. This allows the awcc board of directors to monitor wages and salaries being presented in the budget process, confirming they are relevant with other similar positions. Awcc also participates in this survey annually. Awcc has an annual budget process where the executive director and select key members of the accounting and management team work with the financie committee of the board of directors. There are multiple meetings that go over the new budget being presented, based off actuals from the current year and previous years. Once there is agreement, this budget gets presented to the whole board at a regularly scheduled meeting for final approval. The executive director and senior management team conducts annual reviews with all of the awcc employees. Each department manager will work with the executive director on wage increases, etc. To present in the budget that goes to the board. Once the board approves that budget, the managers conduct reviews and present wage increases to their perspective employees if applicable.”
