Form And Line ReferencePART I, LINE 2:FormAndLineReferenceDesc
ExplanationWe assist human rights defenders who face serious threats to their life or safety as a result of their human rights activism and cannot afford to take measures to protect themselves. Where a human rights defender's work with Human Rights Watch has placed her in danger, we feel a particular responsibility and will give priority. We may also assist direct family members of affected human rights defenders if they, too, have to flee a threatening situation. In all cases, we will require the requesting staff member to confirm that the defender is at real risk of repraisals because of their human rights activities. Requests need to be submitted to the foundations unit of the development department, with a brief description of the person in need, his/her work and circumstances, and the amount the same person will need and for what purpose. Once a request is approved, the finance department will facilitate the transfer. We also may ask for more information describing the human rights defender to enable us to report back to the donors who support this fund.ExplanationTxt

FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C:Human Rights Watch, Inc. requires all officers, directors and key employees to annually confirm their receipt of the conflict of interest policy and disclose any new associations or interests that might potentially pose a conflict. The Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board receives these disclosures and other questions relating to conflicts of interest and determines whether and what action to take.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15A:The Board of Directors of Human Rights Watch, Inc. conducts a performance review of the Executive Director at least biannually. The Board delegates the task of the review to a committee that organizes the review and reports to the full Board on its findings. In conducting its review, the Review Committee takes into consideration the Executive Director's performance in leading Human Rights Watch in all areas, and consults widely both within and outside the organization. In particular, the committee evaluates: - The demonstrable impact of Human Rights Watch's program and activities; - The Executive Director's effectiveness in setting goals and objectives that enable Human Rights Watch to achieve its mission, and - The success of its program in fulfilling these goals and objectives. The Review Committee also conducts surveys of executive compensation from time to time as may be needed. The Board Chairs writes to the Director of Human Resources with the Executive Director's evaluation and compensation recommendations. This communication serves as the official documentation of the committee's decision on the Executive Director's level of compensation.
FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15B:Human Rights Watch strives to maintain a competitive compensation system that is in the best interest of both the organization and our employees to appropriately compensate our workforce for the value of the work provided. It is our intention to use an objective and non-discriminatory compensation system based on periodically updated market data across multiple jurisdictions. Compensation is determined based upon external and internal equity within the given jurisdiction, contingent on an incumbent's education and relevant experience; while salary discussions will often include supervising directors, approval may only be granted by the Human Resources Director. Subsequent salary increases are based upon available organizational resources, the current cost of living trend and the employee's performance as evaluated by their immediate supervisor(s).
