In addition to responsibilities and limitation on its authority outlined in the bylaws, the Committee may not change the bylaws nor appoint/terminate or accept a resignation from the President.

“World Vision's Conflict of Interest policy mandates annual disclosure and reporting from all covered individuals (WVUS officers, employees, board members, and their immediate family members) of any third-party business interests, corporate gifts, and relationships involving WVUS transactions (donations, grants, contracts, purchases, leases, investments, employment, or any other commitment of WVUS resources) that may present a conflict of interest. Board members with disclosed conflicts must recuse themselves from voting on the related transaction. The Chief Legal Officer oversees the policy, vetting disclosed conflicts with discretion, assessing and addressing true conflicts promptly, while seeking additional collaboration when necessary. Unique circumstances that warrant an exception to the policy require a written request and prior approval from the Chief Legal Officer.”

“The Board of Directors mandates the compensation philosophy for the entire organization. The President's salary is reviewed on an annual basis. The Board's Executive Committee will formally evaluate the president based on performance and organizational goals after seeking documented input from each member of the Board, as well as the organization's Senior Leadership team. The Board also determines any compensation adjustments and documents that approval process. In addition, for the purposes of a compensation review, the Board's Executive Committee periodically contracts with compensation consulting firms to conduct an independent review of executive compensation. Once the data is gathered and analyzed by the committee, the recommended compensation package for the President is presented to the full Board for approval.”

“The process for determining the compensation grade levels for the senior leadership team of World Vision is managed by World Vision US' Director, Compensation & Performance Management and contemporaneously documented.

In addition, periodic audits and reviews are conducted utilizing an outside consultant to validate that compensation levels of the senior leadership team are consistent with our compensation philosophy and current market data.”
