Compensation Committee Self-Evaluation Questionnaire
Summary
This template questionnaire is intended for use by a compensation committee to assist it with its performance assessment. This template includes practical guidance and drafting notes. This questionnaire should be provided to compensation committee members and others who interact with the compensation committee to receive additional feedback and assessment. This may include human resources (HR) executives, compensation consultants and independent legal advisers. The compensation committee should consider designating a coordinator to establish a timeframe for receiving and processing the results. For more information on compensation committees, see NYSE and Nasdaq Board of Directors and Committee Governance Requirements Under Sarbanes-Oxley and Dodd-Frank and Compensation Committee Charter (SEC, NYSE, and Nasdaq Compliant). Note that this template questionnaire is a suggested framework for a compensation committee's assessment and should be tailored to suit the specific circumstances of the company.
