An ECFA member ministry has a compensation committee charged with the responsibility to recommend the CEO’s compensation and fringe benefits to the board each year. The committee is comprised of two non-staff board members and the ministry’s CFO. When the board receives the recommendation of the compensation committee, the CEO stays in the boardroom but does not participate in the vote. While the compensation committee records the details of the recommended compensation in their minutes, the board minutes do not reflect any details. How could the ministry improve their practices?
