Compensation Policy

Government compensation and employment policies are important for the efficient delivery of public services by healthcare districts. By conducting regular compensation studies, districts may revise wages paid to senior executives consistent with labor markets, supply and demand. Conducting such studies ensures that districts set appropriate and competitive compensation to attract and retain skilled staff and incentivize performance, and the flexibility to adjust the level and composition of employment to respond efficiently to demographic and technological developments. Healthcare districts should also have policies for their Board compensation.

To demonstrate compliance, provide a link to where the district’s executive compensation policy is on the website.
