| Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process | Form 990, once in draft form, is reviewed by the finance committee.

For management staff, the executive director conducts an annual performance review against strategic goals, confidential staff assessments and benchmarks salaries against regional nonprofit compensation surveys. The process is outlined in Sustainable Long Island's employee handbook. Sustainable Long Island has instituted a performance evaluation program tocompensate and evaluate employees in a fair and equitable manner based upon demonstrated job performance, and in accordance with its equal employment opportunity policy.A performance review for each employee will be conducted by his/her supervisor after 90 days of employment and at least annually thereafter.The supervisor's assessment of strengths, accomplishments against strategic goals, areas that need improvement, and any revision needed in priorities or responsibilities, are included in a written record. The employee will review and sign the written version. It will then become part of the employee's personnel file. An employee may have supervised access to his/her personnel file by requesting it from the executive director. A positive performance review does not guarantee a salary increase. |
