STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS
CHANGES IN PROGRAM SERVICES =========================== FORMATION OF GOODWILL RETAIL SERVICES: In March 2011, the organization's board of directors authorized the creation of Goodwill retail services (GRS), an exempt organization under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, to support the organization. GRS was incorporated on April 4, 2011. Goodwill Industries of Southern California (GSC) controls the operation of GRS and transferred certain retail store employees to GRS, effective July 1, 2011.

FORM 990 REVIEW PROCESS ======================= AFTER THE 990 IS PREPARED BY INDEPENDENT TAX PROFESSIONALS, AND REVIEWED BY: THE ACCOUNTING STAFF; THE VP FINANCE; GENERAL COUNSEL; AND THE PRESIDENT/CEO, IT IS PRESENTED TO THE AUDIT & COMPLIANCE COMMITTEE FOR FINAL REVIEW.

GOVERNANCE, MANAGEMENT, AND DISCLOSURE
CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY MONITORING AND ENFORCEMENT ====================================================== Every Board member signs a statement accepting the Conflict of Interest Policy upon becoming a Director, and annually thereafter. All contracts must be approved by the President/CEO or the VP Finance. Financial transactions are reviewed and approved by the VP Finance, the Controller, and the Accounting Manager. Members of the executive staff and the accounting staff are responsible for monitoring and enforcing compliance with THE policy as directed by the Board of Directors. All proposed transactions involving actual or potential conflicts are reviewed by three disinterested Directors, two of whom are Officers. These Directors make a recommendation to the Board for approval. Transactions involving potential conflicts in an amount under $5,000 may be approved by the President/CEO subject to the guidelines set forth in the policy.
990 PART VI LINE 15(A) AND 15(B)
GOVERNANCE, MANAGEMENT, AND DISCLOSURE
COMPENSATION REVIEW PROCESS =========================== For the President/CEO, a standing Executive Compensation Committee is used to ensure that the compensation of the President/CEO is competitive but not excessive. This Committee compiles information from salary surveys, 990 returns from other similar sized charities in the area, and information from other similar sized Goodwill member agencies across the country. The information is brought to the full Board of Directors in a closed session and a recommendation is made by the committee to the Board. If the Board approves the proposed salary and benefit package, it is approved. In 2009 the process was upgraded to utilize a professional compensation consultant and the process was expanded to include the Vice President of Finance.
