FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C
GIRLS INCORPORATED BOARD MEMBERS, OFFICERS, AND ALL EMPLOYEES AT THE DIRECTOR LEVEL AND ABOVE ARE REQUIRED ANNUALLY TO REVIEW AND SIGN THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST STATEMENT. WE ALSO DISCUSS THE MEANING AND PURPOSE OF THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST STATEMENT AT THE BOARD MEETING BEFORE BOARD MEMBERS ARE ASKED TO EXECUTE THE DOCUMENT. MONITORING FOR THE EXISTENCE OF CONFLICTS OF INTEREST IS A SHARED RESPONSIBILITY OF THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER (STAFF) AND THE BOARD EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. THE BOARDS ENFORCEMENT PROCESS INCLUDES DISCOURAGING EVEN THE APPEARANCE OF A CONFLICT OF INTEREST. HOWEVER, OUR POLICY ALSO OUTLINES A PROCESS FOR DISCLOSURE OF POTENTIAL CONFLICTS AND IT DESCRIBES HOW AN AFFECTED BOARD MEMBER IS REQUIRED TO BEHAVE WITH RESPECT TO SELF RECUSAL FROM DISCUSSION AND VOTING ON ANY MATTERS RELATED TO A POTENTIAL AREA OF CONFLICT.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15
OUR EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE FUNCTIONS AS A COMPENSATION COMMITTEE IN THE CEO'S ANNUAL PERFORMANCE REVIEW. THEY COLLECT INPUT ON THE CEO'S PERFORMANCE FROM ALL BOARD MEMBERS AND ALSO FROM THE CEO'S DIRECT STAFF REPORTS. ONCE A REVIEW RATING IS DETERMINED, THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE DETERMINES THE PAYMENT OF ANY MERIT INCREASE OR BONUS BY LOOKING AT COMPARATIVE SALARY DATA FROM SIMILAR NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS. THIS DATA IS AVAILABLE IN A SALARY STUDY THAT IS PERIODICALLY CONDUCTED BY UNITED WAY OF CENTRAL INDIANA. THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE PREPARES A WRITTEN REVIEW OF THE CEO'S PERFORMANCE AND A RECOMMENDATION FOR SALARY ADJUSTMENT THAT IS PRESENTED TO THE FULL BOARD FOR A VOTE IN EXECUTIVE SESSION. ONCE THE BOARD HAS APPROVED THE CEO'S REVIEW AND COMPENSATION PACKAGE, THE BOARD CHAIR AND ANOTHER MEMBER OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEET WITH THE CEO TO DISCUSS THE BOARD'S COMMENTS AND DECISIONS ABOUT COMPENSATION.
