OUT OF EDEN WALK 501(C)(3) EMPLOYS A COMPENSATION DECISION MAKING POLICY TO ENSURE FAIR AND REASONABLE RATES OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR USING MARKET RATE AS AN OBJECTIVE STANDARD FOR CALCULATING EXECUTIVE PAY AND YEARLY COST-OF-LIVING INCREASES. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR CONDUCTING RESEARCH INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE NONPROFIT SECTOR FOR DETERMINING MARKET RATE. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION MUST BE COMPARED WITH THAT OF A FOR-PROFIT COMPANY OF COMPARABLE SIZE AND WITH A SIMILAR MISSION TO HELP DEFINE A FAIR AND REASONABLE MARKET RATE FIGURE. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IS ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR REFERRING TO JOB DESCRIPTIONS, WHICH INCLUDE THE ORGANIZATION'S PRIORITY QUALIFICATIONS FOR EXECUTIVE STAFF, TO HELP DETERMINE FAIR AND REASONABLE RATES OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION. OUR DECISION MAKING PROCESS PRIORITIZES BOARD-CONDUCTED PERFORMANCE REVIEWS, EQUAL PAY GUIDING PRINCIPLES, OBJECTIVITY, AND DATA-DRIVEN RESEARCH AND BENCHMARKING AGAINST COMPARABLE ORGANIZATIONS. CERTAIN CONTRACTUAL RELATIONSHIPS WITH EXTERNAL ORGANIZATIONS, SUCH AS THE NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC SOCIETY, HAVE CONTRACTUAL STIPULATIONS ABOUT FOUNDING EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION. THESE MUST BE APPROVED BY THE BOARD. |
