ALSO, AUCD USES COMPENSATION DATA FROM OTHER COMPARABLE NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS TO DETERMINE SALARY AND BENEFITS. IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT MANY OF AUCD'S POSITIONS ARE GRANT FUNDED. THEREFORE, COMPENSATION IS, IN PART, ALSO DEPENDENT ON THE APPROVED SALARY LEVEL IN GRANT BUDGETS. AUCD EMPLOYEES TYPICALLY RECEIVE A COST-OF-LIVING (COL) ADJUSTMENT EACH YEAR. IN ADDITION TO THE COL ADJUSTMENT, THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR CAN RECOMMEND A PERFORMANCE-BASED INCREASE FOR STAFF THAT HAVE DONE EXEMPLARY WORK.
